360Learning - Are you giving DEI enough TLC?

We all know how important it is to build a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace. Not only does it help to build trust with employees and keep engagement high, but it's also essential to business growth to provide the right balance of voices we need to thrive.

So, what can L&D teams do to support DEI goals? Encouraging pay transparency to help close the gender pay gap is definitely a priority, as is supporting your LGBTQIA+ colleagues. Now more than ever, there’s also a need to invest in cultural diversity training as many people from different cultures work together in remote and hybrid roles. 

Whether you’ve already taken steps to build the perfect DEI program or you’re starting from scratch, it’s critical to take a holistic and intentional approach—an approach that ensures your efforts are making a real impact, and one that can adjust and respond to future changes. This week, we’re here to provide practical insights on how to make this a reality.
