You want to improve diversity and inclusion practices within your organisation in order to offer more robust products and services, have fewer blind spots, and develop a more innovative culture — but more importantly, because it’s the right thing to do. But now you need the right words to express your goal to the organisation. Without buy-in and commitment at every level, you run the risk of not engaging all stakeholders.
Writing a diversity and inclusion vision statement as part of your governance policy package can be very effective. This statement both compels readers to engage, communicates strategy and sets the tone or culture of your workplace.
