April is Celebrate Diversity Month. It is a time to recognize, understand and amplify our differences while honoring our common humanity. Equity in the workplace is about giving every employee the necessary resources they need to have access to opportunities. And DEIA is just good business: ➡️ Companies employing an equal number of men and women manage to produce up to 41% higher revenue. (Clear Company) ➡️ 6.6% of all Fortune 500 companies have women as their CEOs. (Fortune) ➡️ Gender-diverse companies are 15% more likely to see higher financial returns. (McKinsey) In the workplace, it is important to recognize that all employees have different needs, backgrounds, and circumstances and address the imbalance of opportunities available to them. ----------------- In December 2019, Ann Mukherjee joined Pernod Ricard North America as Chairman & CEO. The first industry outsider and woman of color to assume the post, she has demonstrated from day one her ability to advance through ambiguity, while delivering both ROI and ROR (return on responsibility). She has cultivated a leadership style that is fresh, evolved, and modern. It’s one based on bringing your “whole self to work.” Diversity fosters creativity and innovation. It leads to new ideas, perspectives, and solutions. How are you focusing on equity in your organization? ---------- As certified members of WEConnect International and Canada's 2SLGBTQI+ Chamber of Commerce (CGLCC), inclusion is at the heart of our business. This month, and always, we welcome everyone with respect and dignity. #DEIA #CelebrateDiversityMonth #DEI #WeNotMe #DiverseWorkPlaces #DiverseWorkplaces #EquityMatters #InclusiveLeadership #DiversityandInclusion #ThoughtLeadership

We make the difference at #Voith! 🏳🌈 🌐 In today's interconnected world, Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) have transcended buzzwords to become imperatives for organizations striving to thrive in a complex and dynamic landscape. 💙 As a Global HR Leader, I've witnessed firsthand the transformative power of D&I initiatives in fostering innovation, driving business results, and nurturing a culture of belonging across diverse teams and geographies. That's why I lead by example, championing D&I initiatives, and holding myself and others accountable for fostering inclusive behaviors and practices. By embedding D&I into the fabric of our organizational culture and business strategies, we can create workplaces where every individual feels valued, respected, and empowered to reach their full potential. 🌟 My journey to empower diversity and inclusion is ongoing. I'm committed to continuously evolving our D&I strategies, fostering dialogue and collaboration, and driving measurable progress towards our goals. Together, we can harness the power of diversity and inclusion to create workplaces where everyone belongs, thrives, and succeeds. Let's continue this journey together, empowering diversity and inclusion every step of the way! #makethedifference #diversity #incusion #Voith #EqualOpportunities

🎉 Danish Diversity Week 2024 🎉    We are very proud to be partners for Danish Diversity Week 2024, which kicks off to day 🚀     Alongside our co-partners, we're committed to investing in Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) initiatives, amplifying crucial conversations, and raising awareness on these vital subjects.    We have been looking forward to this week and the opportunity to collaborate with fellow companies in advancing diversity and inclusivity in workplaces – and not least, to be inspired to learn how we can become even better! 🔎    Goodtalks has outlined five key themes for the week: Diversity, Bias, Inclusion, Psychological Safety, and Actions—each to be explored throughout the week. We will use this week as an occasion to spotlight these themes within our organization, sharing examples of our efforts to foster DEIB at EG and valuable knowledge with our employees throughout the week.    At EG, we're dedicated to cultivating an inclusive environment with a diverse workforce and no forms of discrimination. We work with various initiatives aimed at nurturing inclusivity and combatting bias, e.g. integrating inclusive leadership into our internal leadership training, and promoting workshops within teams to foster mutual understanding—an essential foundation for fostering respect and inclusion.    Danish Diversity Week 2024 presents an opportunity for us to explore, learn, and be inspired to further enhance our efforts in fostering DEIB at EG 💪👏 #software #diversity #Lets_Go_Futher https://lnkd.in/djaJnc9s

It's not every day that you meet a thoughtful, forward-thinking CEO like Jeff Simmons, who genuinely focuses on building thriving teams and understanding his people in all their complexity. I did, just last week. During our conversation, it was evident that Jeff leads in a way that actively engages everyone and pushes the team forward—the kind of leadership every organization needs to thrive and grow. Meeting his Elanco team only added to my inspiration. Jeff reminded me that change isn't just possible; it's already underway, driven by leaders like him and teams that care. #inclusionrevolution #inclusionrevolutionbook

There's a well-known saying that great minds think alike. However, across Fresca, we take a different approach - we believe Great Minds Think Differently! Being different used to have a negative vibe to it - some of us just wanted to fit in, not stand out. But our differences are what makes us unique! If we all thought the same, we'd end up with the same views, attitudes and results. It's only when we embrace what makes us different, and recognise the contribution that different thoughts and opinions can add, that we can grow - as individuals, as companies, as communities and as a society. During #NationalInclusionWeek, across Fresca businesses we're holding Listening Groups with colleagues to get their input in to how we can be an even more inclusive organisation. We're listening to voices from different generations, backgrounds, cultures, countries - and with that feedback, we'll #TakeActionMackImpact. It's not just OK to be different - IT'S AWESOME TO BE DIFFERENT! 🙌🏻 #NationalInclusionWeek #TakeActionMakeImpact #Equality, #Inclusion #Diversity #Belonging #Frescafoodheroes #EDIFreshProduce

Today we celebrate World Day for Cultural Diversity 2024. The initiative raises awareness about the importance of promoting cultural diversity and celebrates the various forms of cultural expression around the world – also in the workplace. Research suggests that diverse teams are more effective, make better decisions and lead to a better company performance and thus are a valuable asset for organizations. At Freudenberg, 148 nationalities are represented and more than 50 different languages are spoken – and we value each and every voice! With our commitment to diversity and inclusion, we implemented several initiatives, such as a cross-cultural women’s network and learning opportunities. With these initiatives, we foster our own organizational evolution to set the right frame and creating a workplace where everyone feels valued, respected and heard. #innovatingtogether #culture #diversity #employees
