Diversity: Practice Beyond Theory

Diversity and inclusion are not interchangeable terms. Without inclusion, diversity is simply many different people working together, disconnected and unengaged. In this guide, Criticaleye’s HRD Partner, Resource Solutions, explain how to foster an inclusive environment and make an impact through connection and belonging.

Key takeaways include:

Companies with higher levels of gender diversity and ethnic & cultural diversity in corporate leadership roles were 25 percent more likely to have above-average profitability than companies who weren’t taking their Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) efforts as seriously.
95 percent of job adverts posted in the UK and Ireland included masculine-gendered wording.
More than four-in-ten LGBTQ+ workers have experienced a work-based conflict in the last year. This proportion rises to 55 percent for trans workers (CIPD, 2021).
