INCLUSION

Inclusive organisations across the globe are committed to moving the needle on gender empowerment, going beyond the talk and small changes towards bolder changes and taking a stand to spearhead more tangible action. Inclusive organisations have the goal to bring positive, sustainable impact and change to a workplace that has evolved throughout Industrial Revolutions and new ways of working. Just as the Co-author of the bestselling book How Women Rise Marshall Goldsmith wrote once, “What got you here, won’t get you there”.

INCLUSIVE CULTURES

An inclusive culture requires gender diversity and a platform for both genders to be able to fully understand and openly support each other. Through joining together in open dialogue, sharing experiences or championing change it inspires greater collaboration, a sense of belonging and leverages the differences that are brought to the table as strengths. Inclusive cultures play to each strength at the table, so the more diverse the table, the more strengths available to tap into.

WOMEN IN LEADERSHIP

The business case is clear: the more women are in senior leadership roles the better it is for business. This requires a healthy pipeline of female successors coming through as well as the right level of support and development targeted at the needs of current or future female leaders. It also requires an inclusive leadership development approach for both genders and the right frameworks, policies and conditions to be put into place on a business and societal level.

INSPIRING INNOVATIONS

The future of work embraces new technologies that change the landscape of what is important in the workplace. The focus on the human element, with contributions from both genders has never been more desirable to go hand in hand with technological advances.

WORKPLACE BEST PRACTICES

Sharing organizational success stories and journeys of what has worked well and what was not for further and bolder change and provides a wider scale action towards more inclusive cultures.
