It is very common to make certain mistakes when implementing #diversityequityinclusion initiatives. Although it is a learning journey, some missteps can easily be avoided. Why not learn from other organisations and research in order to establish a truly inclusive workplace with a strategy that is tied to your company’s objectives!
The following are a few of these learnings:
➡️ Many well-intentioned organisations start by taking direct actions that show their commitment to the DE&I agenda. While important, the collective impact of such efforts is limited without a clear set of DE&I objectives and outcomes.
➡️ Policies that recognize and respond to the various needs of a diverse workforce are key for attracting diverse talent. However, they lose their effectiveness without an equal focus on the leadership required to foster an inclusive workplace.
➡️ Leadership can be complex and challenging, especially when a company has a very diverse workforce. Defining leadership is not enough, organisations need to invest in support to help leaders develop and embed inclusive leadership.
