Session: The benefits to the organisation of doing business right - Diversity
Nearly all managers know that they need to think about diversity, many now consider it in hiring decisions or think about it in marketing campaigns, but often organisations forget to take it to the next level, and ensure its embedded in all their processes.In order to ensure that organisations reap the benefits, we first look at the costs of not taking diversity seriously, and then we look at the benefits of having supportive equity and inclusion programmes in order to recruit and retain the best teams. We also look at the importance of allyship, in order to embed the policies and ensure that the DEI strategies have a long last effect.
Finally, we talk about the role of women in DEI Strategies, how they can use them to enable them to get ahead and how women can support others to get ahead.
