As we reach the middle of 2022, leaders continue to confront a key topic: retention. Business leaders from across the U.S. recently joined a CommunIT panel to discuss the topic of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion and how it relates to retention. In a landscape highlighted by increased remote work compounded by turnover and unfamiliarity driven by the Great Resignation – the need to foster a sense of belonging is of heightened importance. When employees lack a sense of belonging, production and profitability are at risk.
In our latest episode of CommunIT “Creating a Sense of Belonging”, you will hear how these important conversations about culture and inclusion and can impact retention on your team.
Our panelists have shared their perspectives on the following:
-
Their own experience and definitions of a “Sense of Belonging”
-
What leaders at all levels can do to promote inclusion and why it is important to be both authentic and curious
-
How to have the sometimes difficult conversations when an employee doesn’t feel a sense of belonging
