 How do you get workplace diversity and inclusion right? Build a culture where everyone feels valued and heard. Chances are your organization has already invested in recruiting a diverse workforce that includes a range of ages, ethnicities, religions and worldviews. But that is only half of the diversity and inclusion picture.
Creating a culture where people are respected and appreciated requires another level of effort—Inclusion! Inclusion embraces what makes each person unique, ensures different perspectives are heard, and values individual contributions. Think of inclusion as being like a chorus—each member has a different musical background, vocal range, and ability. When each person is put together with others, harmony is made. Similarly, when employees who are different from their colleagues are allowed to bring their perspectives to the team and collaborate, the company harmonically benefits through innovation, creativity and ideation…not to mention employee engagement. |
