Clear Policies, Clear Respect. All In, Always.👇🏿👇🏿 . . . It's time to weave inclusion into the DNA of our policies. Everybody in the pool means everyone's got a shot to shine. Craft rules that champion the chorus of voices in your crew. When policies scream 'We value you!' employees don't just hear it, they feel it. Let's get serious about giving everyone the props and place they deserve. #InclusionMatters #PolicyRevamp #ValueAllVoices

In this one-hour training, members of Greene Espel’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Practice Group will cover the fundamentals of diversity, equity, and inclusion as well as present the compelling business case for investing in diversity, equity and inclusion. It’s not enough to aim for increased diversity. Organizations only fully realize the benefits of diverse teams when they eliminate bias and forge a culture of inclusion. These factors are shown to increase engagement. And higher engagement has an effect on profitability, team morale, and retention. People working in inclusive workplaces also tend to have better physical and mental health. This engaging and energizing presentation discusses how bias is affecting us at work. And this session highlights the latest research on HOW to limit the effect of bias and ensure that your office is inclusive. Approved for CLE credit in MN and NJ, and awaiting approval in NY.

Let's talk about Privilege... 'A special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group.' The key word here is granted as opposed to earned. To have privilege, is to hold certain advantages based upon a characteristic or status. Throughout our lives, while our characteristics can remain unchanged, our status can evolve. I'm an example of that and my work now helps me use my 'new earned privilege' to help others find bespoke solutions to combat the obstacles created by concepts that stand in the way of EDI. In the workplace, privilege can exist in many forms: salary, promotional opportunities and the day-to-day treatment of colleagues, amongst other things. While privilege cannot be avoided, it is often an underlying root of workplace inequalities. We all hold a responsibility to reduce the effects of privilege within our workplace if we wish EDI to flourish. But, how do we better understand, measure and combat the 'unearned power of privilege' to foster equitable and inclusive workplaces? At Diversity+, in collaboration with the The Law Society of Scotland we created the 'calculator of privilege', an interactive tool to help us understand and measure privilege with the aim to then challenge and find solutions to combat it. The tool has been created specifically with the wider Scottish legal sector in mind but it can be adapted for other industries, individual organisations and teams. If you'd like to learn more, book a demonstration and discuss how it can be used for your workplace EDI journey, please reach out to us: ➡ hello@diversityplus.info ➡ https://lnkd.in/dwJiC7em ➡ or DM me on this platform #diversityandinclusion #privilege #legalprofession #womeninlaw #privilege #change #leadership
