How Inclusivity Can End the Great Resignation

Several weeks back I shared an article from Knowledge@Wharton about how inclusivity in the workplace, and making sure employees’ personal stories are represented can be the turning point in talent retention. Recently, the pros at Wharton published a follow up article in which they share the keys to avoiding the Great Resignation. Spoiler alert: it’s all in the management.

Their research shows that at every level of management, from supervisors all the way to C-suite executives, fair practices matter. It’s not simply a matter of managing well, either. Managers work tirelessly to create an environment where everyone feels valued, represented, and heard. If management can achieve this, talent will be less inclined to seek other employment options. In fact, as they state in the article: “Companies that earn a reputation for being a place where everyone is seen, heard and valued may not have to worry about the Great Resignation.” Give it a read to see how your company can benefit.

Using AI to Increase Diversity

A greater amount of diversity benefits us all. In nature, species thrive when genetic traits vary largely among the population. In our day to day human lives, our cities and towns become more vibrant and interesting places to live when we see those who do not look like us, speak to those who do not think the ways that we so, or hear languages spoken that we may not speak. And of course, the same thriving atmosphere applies to the microcosm of the workplace.

Mindfully increassing diversity is a sensitive and daunting process. The idea can be entirely overwhelming. It helps to have some guidance in the areana. In keeping with our 21st century, we now have a bot to help us with it. Check out 3 ways in which AI can improve diversity in your company.
