Realize The Full Benefits Of Diversity

Diversity has been a goal, an initiative, and a buzzword for decades, but few individuals or organizations have seen as much impact as they’d like from their efforts.

Recent research makes the reasons for that clear: realizing the full benefits of diversity is impossible without an equally dedicated effort toward inclusion.

Unfortunately, when faced with real-world inclusion scenarios, even well-intentioned leaders can fall into unconscious traps.

But with a more developed understanding of inherent biases, coaches can help clients guard against exclusivity and set themselves on the true path to inclusion.

Join Tricia Naddaff, (LinkedIn profile) MRG President, to move beyond the tired assumptions around diversity and discover the practical tactics for building a truly diverse and inclusive environment.

Tricia will explore:

• Diversity and Inclusion: why they matter, and what the barriers are to achieving both
• Why we won’t be successful with Diversity initiatives alone
• The triggers that send diversity-positive leaders running from inclusion
  • and how to be proactive about overcoming them
• Research on the practices of leaders best equipped to foster a diverse and inclusive environment
• Tactics for increasing inclusivity

Ask ten professionals and you will receive ten different answers. There is confusion around basic concepts that will require some elaboration, to set a proper point of departure.

The two main types of innovation (radical and incremental) necessitate conflicting toolsets, which need to be used simultaneously.

Before Gert begins, we must make sure that everyone is on the same page with regards to basic concepts about innovation management, and gain an understanding as to why it is challenging to implement effective innovation management practices for many.

Employees’ level of engagement can affect many business variables, including talent acquisition and retention; corporate brand; customer/client loyalty and satisfaction; and financial performance, growth and stability.

Essentially, engaged employees are willing to go the extra mile for their company, customers and coworkers. However, 2 in 5 employees are currently completely disengaged from their employer.

With the diverse makeup of the modern workforce, a one-size-fits-all approach to employee engagement simply doesn’t work today.

Two similarly-aged employees may be at completely different stages in their career and have varying preferences, challenges and motivators.

During this webinar, featuring an exclusive first look at the 2017 Engage by Stage research data, attendees will learn:

• The different stages that employees pass through during their careers
• Engagement preferences at each stage, including information needs (both in context and channel) and reward and recognition
  How leadership behaviors and attitudes, organizational goals and an employee’s role influence employee engagement
• How best to drive engagement across the organization to retain and inspire talent

Join Dan Reilly, (LinkedIn profile) Vice President of Client Services, SMS Research Advisors & Julie McCracken, (LinkedIn profile) Senior Director, Padilla and learn to engage all of your employees.
