After 10 years of working for a large group of leaders, companies, D&I managers, HR directors across a variet of sectors, there is one thing that keeps popping up.
The most relevant question is how to make diversity work.
The answer is radical inclusion.
Keynote Outline
Let me start by making an honest confession. A few months ago, I had a diversity depression. After working for over 10 years on the topic of inclusive workplaces where diverse talents can reach their full potential, I looked at the numbers.
Yes, times they are changing. But change takes permanent focus. It's about learning by doing. As the DEI topic becomes more mature, more questions arise.
Why is it the number of women at the top of our companies is 21 %?
Why are only 16 % of mayors women?
Why is ethnic diversity an entry level challenge and gender diversity a talent management challenge?
Should you all participate more actively in Pride Week?
How do we deal with young professionals’ different communication styles and ambitions?
How do you handle diversity of culture and religions in your manufacturing plant?
Are there only blue rational number crunchers on your team?
Are you still allowed to make a joke?
Do you surround yourself with enough people to challenge you?
