If there’s one reason #diversity in #leadership really matters, it’s this: you get to understand your #customers better. Let me explain. I’ll take the example of our leadership team at StayVista. Having different voices at the leadership table — men, women, people from all walks of life — helps us see things from every angle. For example, when a woman is booking a trip, she might be thinking about things like safety, comfort, and those little extras that make a stay special. A family with kids? They’re probably more focused on space and convenience. And let’s not forget guests with accessibility needs — that’s something you might miss if no sensitive soul in leadership is thinking about it. I’ve seen firsthand how having diverse perspectives at the table has helped us create more thoughtful experiences for our guests. In #hospitality, that’s everything. How has #leadershipdiversity impacted your #customerexperience? #inclusion

Female representation in C-Suite S&P 500 roles dropped for the first time in 20 years. (from 12.2% to 11.8% of the 15k positions included) That’s ~1/10 leaders who are women. Why is this an issue? If we want real change in how our businesses and society think about family and work… we need 👏 representation 👏 Leadership teams decide ♦️ who gets promoted ♦️ what benefits get paid for ♦️ if companies have paid leave ♦️ how long leave is ♦️ what it looks like to return to work ♦️ if there are flexible return to work policies If women (especially moms!) aren’t there to advocate our needs… No one else will. — I’m Ashley Chang, co-founder of Sundays, an executive assistant service for working parents. We help parents have meaningful careers *and* families.

As I celebrate beginning my 4th year with @Sikich, I can reiterate with absolute conviction Heather's commitment to culture building. Honestly, I was originally skeptical of bringing my whole 50+ year old self to work, but can attest (CPA humor) it's encouraged and critical to variety of thought, development of solutions, valuing perspectives, and frankly better business and overall experience for employees and clients. If you're looking for a workplace where you can actually bring your unique self, grow personally and professionally, and thrive in an environment ever committed to equity and opportunity, look no further. #culture #leadership #opportunity #employeeexperience #growthstrategy #WIL #womeninleadership #joinourteam #CHRO #HR #CEO #workplacewellness Nurturing a culture where everyone has a place to grow, be successful and feel included is paramount to our success, shares CHRO Heather Peters in this HR Dive article.

"Gen Z, now a significant part of the workforce, brings a unique perspective characterized by entrepreneurial spirit, high expectations for transparency, and a preference for authenticity. Unlike previous generations, they often pursue multiple income streams and challenge traditional work norms. To maximize their potential, leaders should embrace their differences and foster environments that encourage collaboration and innovation. Gen Z’s skepticism and desire for meaningful work can drive change, making them valuable assets in evolving workplace cultures."

A critical success factor for a well established, multigenerational organisation such as Bosch is to ensure that their talent across generations feel included and belonged, are able to deliver to their full potential and thrive at the workplace. Inclusion as such is a key factor for employee engagement and retention but within that if there is no generational inclusion, it’s just a matter of time that the talent eventually leaves the company. Yesterday we had an incredible experience. We launched a platform called ‘GenFusion’ for fostering generational inclusion. For the first time we brought employees across different generational groups under one roof to have a dialogue and exchange of views on what it means to belong to a specific generation and how it influences workplace patterns and behaviours. These conversations were so enriching, insightful and thoroughly enjoyable. What was great is that the participants, while they identified themselves with a gen, took the interest to analyse and insight into the the behaviours of other gens leading to a deep sense of appreciation and respect for what they bring to the table. They also busted some myths and prejudices through these dialogues. We tried this format for the first time and with this resounding success there is demand to do more. Kudos to Sanchya Medappa, for this was your idea and Seema Sahu (She/Her) for the superb execution. Thank you to every single participant who joined us in this little experiment and so enthusiastically shared your thoughts and views. # diversity #coach #inclusion #leadership #bosch #bgsw

🌟 I was just browsing LinkedIn and stumbled across this quote by Arthur Chan "𝐃𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐚 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐭. 𝐄𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐚 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞. 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. 𝐁𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞." I couldn't agree more with what those of us who are dedicated to #DEI are looking for: - 𝐃𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐲: The undeniable variety of identities and perspectives every Team member bring to the table. - 𝐄𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐲: The intentional decisions we make to ensure fairness and equal oportunities - 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: The proactive steps we take to make everyone feel valued and heard. - 𝐁𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠: The ultimate goal, where every individual feels an integral part of the whole. #Belonging is crucial because it fosters a sense of #community and #commitment, leading to higher employee #engagement, #retention, and productivity. When people feel they belong, they are more likely to contribute their best ideas and efforts, for the #success of entire #organization. Belonging should be the ultimate goal of every DEI initiative—it’s not just about show off that you #diverse #workforce, but about creating an environment where everyone feels they truly belong.🌎💜 #Diversity #Equity #Inclusion #Leadership #WorkplaceCulture #Team
