Diversity, equity and Inclusion in support of sustainable business strategy
Business Case, STRATEGY DESIGN & PROGRAMMING
Organizations that move toward building a work environment that represents the community and marketplace do so because it is good business. This is a business strategy simply because it is essential for the sustainability of the organization. To accomplish the end goals, the organization must harness a broad community of talent and much larger networks. tapping into a broad source of talent pools is only a small part of an equation that will accomplish the goal. In fact, progress in hiring talent that mirrors your marketplace will not succeed in the long term if the organization is not intentional in it's strategy to build an inclusive and equitable culture for all employees.
Individuals in any community, including an organizational community, bring their personal mental models which incorporate many things. while we move through the phases of our lives, each of us acquires a framework of the world. This framework is based on a melding of our childhood experiences, education, socioeconomic status, ethnic origins, community affiliations, friends, relatives, networks and a multitude of other experiences. The richness and business benefit of the individuality in our talent pool lies in the varied and unique mental models and experiences we bring. This individuality enables the organization to anticipate and successfully deal with the increasing complexity of our business environment, including internal culture, the external marketplace and competitive landscapes.
Harnessing the rich tapestry of our people requires a culture that is aware of this as a essential strategic competence. a culture that is encouraged strongly to foster it through our communication, styles of leadership, education, decision making models, healthy conflict management, leadership development and many other organizational development mechanisms.
