JOURNEY TO CONSCIOUS INCLUSION
We are at a time where there is a global shortage of great talent and employees stay in their job on average for only 2.4 years> How organisations evolve their culture to allow people to just “be themselves” and feeling belonging is critical to attract and reatain team of top performers.
Organisations spend millions of Euros each year on Unconscious Bias training, yet very little is being acheived to move the needle when it comes to Gender Equality, BAME and LGBT inclusion – people with disability are often overlooked or turned away for being a too challenging for employers. We are well aware that pay gaps exist all over the diversity spectrum.
In this keynote Joanne gives her thoughts as to why the approach currently taken by organisations is broken. Most of our biases are conscious and it is therefore the responsibility of organisations to develop a conscious inclusion culture and vision. Joanne challenges thinking and highlights strategies for a starting point on this journey, the destination is up to you!
