I hate how much the headlines shape what we believe about inclusion. They rarely tell the full story – which is why hearing real experiences at Ghyston’s IWD celebration event this morning was so powerful. The event, Power of Inclusion: Real Stories, Real Impact, marked a year since ISL Talent partnered with Ghyston to launch the Bristol Inclusion Hackathon. And it was a much-needed reminder that real change isn’t happening in corporate statements or media debates. It’s happening on the ground, in businesses across Bristol and beyond, through everyday actions. We need to hear more stories like today. 🌍 Gemma kicked things off by addressing the growing concerns around Trump’s stance on ED&I in the US. Her advice? Control what you can control. 💡 Kristal from the Bristol Women in Business Charter shared practical steps companies are taking: ✅ Bringing diverse voices into senior meetings so leadership doesn’t feel out of reach. ✅ Reverse mentoring – bridging generational gaps at the highest level. ✅ Tackling menopause awareness with manager workshops. ✅ Rethinking hiring processes to be truly inclusive. 👀 Gildas spoke candidly about the challenges of discussing inclusion as a white man. But by embracing empathy, he helped a diverse workforce that strengthened his business. 💬 Susie shared her mental health journey and how openness in hiring conversations helped her thrive. One ripple can create a wave. 🌈 Matt from the Plus Importance Project highlighted the often-overlooked ‘+’ in LGBT+. Language, understanding, and confidence-building are key. 💭 What struck me most? You can introduce all the ‘right’ inclusion initiatives. But if the company culture isn’t built to support them, they will fail. Psychological safety, leadership commitment, and everyday actions create the environment where inclusion thrives – or quietly disappears. Also… a rare event where ChatGPT was only mentioned once! A refreshing break from the tech world I live in! A brilliant event to be part of (and thanks Mia for taking the photos I failed to capture!) I realise we can't rely on the headlines to tell us these stories. So how do we make sure they’re heard more often?
