Breaking bad habits or creating new ones? Which one should you opt for? According to Eyal, certainly, breaking bad habits is more effective than creating new ones. In a workplace, reconsidering old habits and behaviours, that are setting us back, make all the difference rather than jumping onto creating new ones that might not be as effective. However, breaking old habits might not be as simple as we think. It requires a high level of self-awareness or even observation and insights from our peers and colleagues. After gathering these insights, we are better placed at eliminating the bad ones.  But how do we point out such habits when talking about an organisation at large? That’s where data science comes into play. At In Diverse Company, we specialise in uncovering patterns of bad habits and providing you with actionable insights. By analysing your organisational data, we can help you understand how these habits impact employee perception and overall performance. Our article – Breaking Bad, explores such complex nuances of the human brain and how habit formation occurs accordingly.

The harsh truth is that focusing on diversity alone will not give you optimum results. A holistic change in culture is what drives a business and inculcates positive behaviours in a team.  Often when companies solely focus on diversity, it can end up being just a tick-box exercise. This in turn does more harm than good, even if that is not the intention behind it. At In Diverse Company, we strongly believe that building sustainable work cultures where all employees feel valued, respected and feel a sense of belonging thrive while outperforming their competitors in revenue growth and innovation altogether. We offer a range of Culture Change Programmes suited to support you and your team through your inclusion journey.  We assure you that our Culture Change Programmes deliver measurable results. Ready to create a truly inclusive culture that drives business success? Contact us today for a consultation and let's discuss how we can help you unlock the full potential of your diverse workforce.

A study has found that more than 92% executives said they believed improving their firm’s corporate culture would improve the value of the company. But why do only 37% of these initiatives succeed? The reason lies in the failure to change human habits. Desirable company cultures aren’t achieved through grand gestures but by implementing simple, clear and observable habits. At In Diverse Company, our behaviour learning programmes focus on psychology-backed nudges that help in creating a lasting change in cultures. We understand that sustainable change requires consistent action, not just good intentions. That's why we emphasise the power of small, repeated behaviours, and support them with our tools. The article ‘Habits That Change Culture’ delves deeper into the topic of habit formation and the impact it has on a company’s culture. It outlines how our Include LXPTM platform empowers organisations to build inclusive, collaborative, and high-performing cultures through proven behavioural science.

More female CEOs will drive change – how do we get there? This International Women's Day, as we #AccelerateAction towards gender equality, it's crucial to look beyond boardroom statistics and focus on real leadership impact. While significant progress has been made in representation of women in board rooms, the reality highlights something different - most of these positions are non-executive, meaning women still lack decision-making power.   As our CEO, Johanna Beresford has stated in the City AM, “focus on really understanding the psychology of leadership and how this drives positive change.” The way to progress is not just representation but to focus on systemic and behaviour change. A McKinsey Global Institute report finds that $12 trillion could be added to global GDP by 2025 by advancing women’s equality. Therefore, this isn’t just about being fair but an economic imperative. Moving forward, we need to prioritise developing leadership pipelines that prepare more women to take up senior positions. This is how we can close the increasing gender pay gap and drive progress. It’s time to move beyond discussions and take concrete actions to break down the systemic barriers. What steps are you taking to support women in leadership?

The recent news relating to influential corporations rolling back their DEI programmes is an example of the pressures that business leaders face in today’s world.  The volatility of the times doesn’t just impact strategies but often end up costing leaders a majority of their time, leading them to quit their roles. Hence, the average tenure of a UK CEO has now dropped to just 4.8 years, down from 8.3 years just nine years ago. Yet, a 2017 McKinsey report concludes that companies with top-quartile gender-diverse executive teams are more profitable on average. And those leading in ethnic & cultural diversity are 33% more likely to exceed profitability benchmarks. Despite these positive results, inclusion is overlooked as a business imperative. The solution is not to create a DEI specific strategy but to identify the organisation’s most pressing business challenges and explore how a culturally informed approach can help address them. Our article in Raconteur | B Corp™ emphasises the importance of changing organisational cultures by targeting micro-cultures in a team-based setting. In this article, our CEO, Johanna Beresford, encourages organisations to move beyond treating inclusion as a check-box activity, to using it to your competitive advantage. How can businesses reposition DEI to see long-term growth rather than standalone initiatives? Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/gzkD5ij #InclusiveLeadership #EDI #UK

Did you know that organisational integrity isn’t just a “nice-to-have" but is the backbone for achieving sustainable success for an organisation? Therefore, being ethical is a strategic priority and not just a compliance activity.   Our proprietary model of organisational integrity, designed by our Chief Solutions Officer Stephen Dixon-Mould and CEO Johanna Beresford; Integrity → trust → oxytocin → higher employee performance → better organisational performance Integrity and trust are directly correlated, and neuroscience research shows that when we are trusted and when we trust, our brains respond by producing oxytocin, this leads to better performance.   Most of the companies don’t even realise that by just adapting to these simple habits, they can unlock the true potential of their workforce and drive their organisation to success. That's why we're thrilled to announce that Stephen will be sharing his expertise at the "Navigating Organisational Integrity in the Modern Workplace" webinar. Hosted by Engage for Success, this free, online webinar will delve into:  ✔️Building a culture of trust  ✔️Navigating ethical dilemmas  ✔️Fostering responsible business practices Date & Time: 21st February 2025; 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm GMT Join Stephen and other industry leaders to discover how integrity can transform your workplace!
