Diversity, equity and inclusion are not only ‘hot topics’, but they are also essential success factors to any business.
Organizations that do not tap into diversity are less effective, less productive and less profitable. Without inclusive behaviors and skills to match your policy documents, the business not only risks legal challenges, but will not best utilize its talent, be less able to connect to customers and be unable to engage employees
Employees will lack confidence to talk about diversity issues, will reject initiatives as ‘political correctness’ and will continue to act out microaggressions, allowing unconscious bias to negatively impact equity and fairness.
