Content: Increase Leadership Visibility
Becoming a visible leadership when it comes to diversity and inclusion, is one of the key things that leadership can do to advance the agenda. The current environment means that diversity and inclusion has been placed firmly on organizational 'to do' lists, and it requires a visible show from leadership. Ensure that visible and diverse leadership becomes part of the main agenda for team and leadership meetings, and that there is a clear process for monitoring and evaluating activities, right across the business. What gets measured, usually gets done. Leadership must be accountable for embedding diversity and inclusion, if initiatives are to be successful. It will not be enough to start an initiative and then retreat to the confines of the boardroom. The leadership must have an engaged presence, over the life cycle of diversity and inclusion project. Make time for it. Invest In Company-Wide Training
All employees have a responsibility when it comes to diversity and inclusion. Regardless of role, your employees must be cognisant of how it impacts their day jobs and what they need to do to support the agenda.
