🌈 As June stands for Pride Month, #WDS take the opportunity to look at LGBT+ inclusion at work. While there are many companies in the digital industry that champion inclusion, 42% of LGBTQIA+ employee experience non-inclusive behaviours in their professional life. A recent report, Deloitte Global’s 2023 report on LGBT+ Inclusion in the Workplace, highlights there is still work to do in improving employee welfare regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. There are several key steps that can be followed to foster LGBT+ inclusion in the workplace: - Encourage allyship and ensure visible support networks for LGBT+ employees. Allies are key for creating an inclusive environment. - Promote and support LGBT+ employee resource groups. Such groups give to LGBT+ employees a place to connect, share experiences, and advocate for inclusion. - Ensure senior leaders openly support and advocate for LGBT+ inclusion. Leaders should set an example for the whole organization by supporting and advocating for inclusion. Tech and digital industries need to create a workplace where LGBT+ employees feel secure, supported and able to be their true self. As the industry strives for innovation and excellence, embracing diversity and fostering inclusion will enable organizations to attract and keep top talent, drive creativity, and build a more equitable future 🏳️🌈 #womenindigitalswitzerland #inclusion #pride #pridemonth #equitable #future

Over the last couple of years, the spotlight on diversity and inclusion (D&I) has intensified, fuelled by global events such as the widespread protests following George Floyd's death and the impactful leadership demonstrated by female heads of state during the pandemic. Even here in Australia, these discussions have gained momentum, resonating with the recent advancements in gender equality and LGBTQ+ rights, including legal decisions promoting workplace inclusivity. Although these current events have brought D&I to the forefront, this topic should not be new in the workplace — addressing D&I concerns should be a critical priority for all organisations. However, many organisations struggle to create diverse workplaces, especially at the highest levels, and to promote cultures that allow all employees to feel heard and included. Fortunately, organisations can leverage Hogan assessments to help address these concerns and create a more diverse and inclusive culture. Read the full blog: https://lnkd.in/gKMSDmik
