EQUALITY, DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION: FUTURE-PROOFING YOUR WORKFORCE

Recent research has shown that the Foundation Industries face particular challenges around attracting new talent and retaining them – specifically, younger people and women.

Promoting equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in the workplace not only develops the talent pipeline but helps businesses and teams to ‘make better decisions, come up with more competitive products, and better understand potential customers…[leading] to increased sales revenue, more customers, and greater relative profit’ (Sara Wachter-Boettcher, 2017).

Harnessing the dividends of a more diverse workforce requires new thinking and a whole systems approach to shaping inclusive workplace cultures. Our EDI learning and development package helps you rise to the challenge of building a more sustainable workforce.
