Why DEI is not just an HR thing…

HR People - Want to know the 3 biggest challenges you will probably face when it comes to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion?

1. You are trying to take it on alone.

2. You don’t have full senior leadership buy-in.

3. You’re worried about putting your foot in it and saying or doing the wrong thing.

Yes, HR teams do have lots of the tools and the access to data that’s needed to support the business with DEI work. But no single department can be responsible for the entire culture or an organisation. It’s just not possible!

And yet – almost all business leaders have the expectation that HR is the place for DEI responsibility to sit.

Join Katie Allen, DEI specialist, Executive Coach, and TEDx speaker, as she shares how you can get ahead of these challenges and give your DEI strategy the best chance of long-term and sustainable success. AND make you more self-confident in the process!

From Cautious to Confident:

3 Things about DEI conversations you need to know.

As soon as the words “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” are uttered most rooms will go quiet and you can feel the fear levels rise. That look of “oh no, please don’t make me say anything” freezes onto faces. So, it’s understandable then when I say I’m a DEI Specialist the one thing people always confess to me is that they’re scared of saying or doing the wrong thing and offending someone.

And the funny thing about this is that it’s not just a few people… it’s everyone. All of us share this concern! And ironically, not talking about this is the one thing that stops us from breaking the grip of fear, and starting to make the changes we need to grow and improve.

That’s why I want to share with you 3 things you need to know today to help you fight that fear and move your conversations from a cautious tiptoe of hesitant language to confident dialog and meaningful discussion.
