Over the past year, we’ve been attending some outstanding virtual events and summits worldwide to learn and sharpen our knowledge base. We attended virtual events for ERG leaders and DEI professionals of all levels who care about impact and inclusion.
We’ve spent our time at the events soaking up best practices from other ERG leaders, DEI & HR leaders globally – here are some of the most crucial things we learned.
– Leaders must make concrete commitments on DEI. It’s their responsibility to set goals and take action. Be curious to understand and care then be courageous to act inside the company and outside.
– According to neuroscience, when you feel excluded, the brain processes it the same way as when it senses physical pain. (Eisenberger N. G., 2007) In simple words, it hurts to be excluded.
– Inclusion requires us to learn about ourselves and others then recalibrate our behaviors.
– Engage with empathy and care. Always ask, don’t assume. Take accountability for your learning. Make an effort to try to understand first and then ask.
