Inclusion makes
diversity work
To get the best from everyone,
we need to include everyone

New to diversity and inclusion?
What’s diversity? What’s inclusion?
- Diversity is difference, e.g., race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, age, and cultural background.
- Inclusion is the welcoming of difference. Inclusion puts diversity into practice.
- Diversity of thought looks at the different ways people approach life and work. Unlike diversity, which is usually visible, diversity of thought is hidden.
Why should organisations focus on inclusion?
- Research shows that inclusive organisations perform better, make better decisions, and retain more employees.
- Without inclusion, diversity measures cannot work effectively.
Why should I focus on inclusion and diversity of thought?
- It’s a natural fit for people development professionals.
- Leaders need to learn how to be inclusive. It’s a competency and a skill that leaders don’t necessarily have.
