Inclusion and belonging are personal feelings which means people won\u2019t articulate their thoughts if they aren\u2019t asked\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Matt Stephens, founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/thirteencreative.co.uk\/inpulse21\/\"><span class=\"s2\">Inpulse<\/span><\/a>, the employee wellbeing survey experts, agrees. Research from Inpulse shows that 25% of employees do not feel like they can be themselves at work and 33% don\u2019t believe their company takes D&amp;I seriously.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">According to Stephens, an inclusive culture is one in which a mix of people can go to work, feel confident in being themselves and work in a way that suits them to effectively deliver company needs. He asserts that to make this happen, it\u2019s essential for leaders to address their own shortcomings in supporting employees to feel comfortable at work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">In the Inpulse webinar about Inclusion, Stephens identified two particular barriers that leaders currently face in improving an inclusive culture at work:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Not prioritising inclusion above other focuses<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">In the period we\u2019re in now, it\u2019s not that people don\u2019t want to focus on inclusion, it\u2019s that other things get in the way. With so much change &#8211; redundancies, remote working, return to work and home schooling &#8211; inclusion can fall into the trap of becoming more to do with spreadsheets, hitting targets and meeting the numbers. Leaders need to support inclusion initiatives in a humane way that still values people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Being unable to recognise privilege&nbsp;<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Sometimes in the corporate world, where leadership teams aren\u2019t currently as diverse as they should be, they may struggle to recognise their own privilege. They may think they\u2019re aware of the experiences others are facing but, in truth, their own understandings of the workplace don\u2019t reflect the experiences of their employees. Becoming aware of your own privilege and recognising the real life encounters of others are essential in creating a workplace culture that nurtures the broader needs of a team.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Here are the 6 key steps that Gharry Eccles and Matt Stephens have identified, helping leaders to address the inclusion barriers in the workplace:<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">1.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span>It starts with the top<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Leaders should be encouraged to walk the talk and model the behaviours they want to see in their team. Though inclusion is a step that all employees must participate in to help create the right culture, if senior leaders aren\u2019t encouraging inclusivity in communications and actions, middle management and those beyond won\u2019t embrace it either.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"s1\">2. Being genuine is essential<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">According to Gharry Eccles:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cYou either care about people or you don\u2019t but you can\u2019t fake it\u201d.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Organisations must show genuine concern for the welfare of their employees. Inclusion efforts can\u2019t merely be about hitting targets. Instead, understanding the value of people should come first and then this should be championed by setting goals and standards.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"s1\">3. Connect hearts and minds: add the human element back into inclusion<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Because of remote work, the pandemic has exposed the home lives of leaders, uncovering their human side which has broken down typical hierarchical barriers. Leaders have spoken about their personal experiences &#8211; their struggles, their mental health concerns &#8211; and it\u2019s become acceptable for others to open up too. According to Gharry, when leaders show these vulnerabilities and human imperfections, it creates a wave of sharing, providing an inclusive place to talk. Adding the human back into inclusive leadership is key.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"s1\">4. Get everyone on board<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">When thinking about inclusion, it\u2019s possible that not all members of the workforce will feel it\u2019s an effort that\u2019s connected to them. Some groups may not understand the role they can play in helping others feel included or the benefits that they themselves would feel from a more inclusive environment. It\u2019s important that leaders make an effort to open up the conversation with these people, by linking the conversation to mental health, wellbeing or workplace safety &#8211; any inclusion topic that will resonate with them and create a lightbulb moment where someone realises \u2018yes, this is about me\u2019.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"s1\">5. Actively find new perspectives<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s vital that leaders consider all perspectives and educate themselves on varying experiences to be an ally to all employees. <\/span>Creating opportunities such as reverse mentoring in which grad scheme members, for example, pair up with senior leadership to provide a fresh perspective and open their minds to new ideas.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"s1\">6. Go back to basics<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Gharry Eccles stresses the importance of creating a \u2018listening environment\u2019. Whether it\u2019s by opening up conversations, using employee listening surveys or holding focus groups, leaders must be prepared to find ways to regularly hear the needs and thoughts of their staff. Action has to be based on what employees are saying.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Gharry Eccles, summarises:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWhen leaders are able to create a listening environment and get to a deeper level of understanding, they have the ability to ask \u2018what more can be done?\u2019. It gives them the awareness and the capacity to take inclusion efforts from acceptance to acceleration.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>For media enquiries contact:<\/b>&nbsp;Kay Phelps, PRinHR,&nbsp;Email:&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:kay.phelps@PRinHR.co.uk\"><span class=\"s3\">kay.phelps@PRinHR.co.uk<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;+44 (0) 7710 043244.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p8\"><span class=\"s4\">About&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/thirteencreative.co.uk\/inpulse21\/\"><span class=\"s5\">Inpulse<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s5\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thirteencreative.co.uk\/inpulse21\/\">Inpulse<\/a><\/span><span class=\"s1\">&nbsp;provides real-time emotion-driven employee insights that improve engagement to help increase the performance of a company.
