Inclusivity

Inclusion of diverse groups in society and organisations doesn’t just happen spontaneously. Quite the opposite. Tribal dynamics mean that people often seek out others like themselves and exclude anyone different. The Global Inclusivity Report 2020 highlights societal barriers, notably race discrimination and poverty, and workplace challenges, where biases in recruitment or promotions, leadership attitudes and gender discrimination play a key role. The benefits are compelling: promoting different ways of thinking, a culture of openness and learning, creativity, productivity, motivation and the creation of economic value. To achieve these, we must make diversity an action not an adjective.
