Do we need to
rethink DEI?
Listen to our interview with
an industry expert who wants
to change the conversation on
diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives seem to be losing traction, enthusiasm, and resources in some corporate environments.
Daniel Snell, co-founder of leadership and culture change consultancy Arrival, says it’s time to take a performance-driven, customer-centred approach. In this fascinating interview, we ask:
Why is DEI falling off corporate agendas?
Can diversity drive business performance?
Is the current approach to inclusion holding companies back?
How can organisations unlock people’s ‘uniqueness of contribution’?
Does a pure performance focus mean less progress towards inclusive leadership?
What role should data play in evolving DEI?
How will the corporate landscape transform in the next decade?
How do we establish a high-performance, highly agile workforce that’s digitally enabled and can respond in a very flexible way that’s much more customer-centric? That’s really the next play for the next 10 years for all organisations and leaders."
