Video: Managing your diversity policy
Jon Whiteley looks at the key points to consider when tackling diversity
Diversity in the workplace is not just a one-off project, but an ongoing practise of recruiting and retaining an engaged, diverse workforce who all share and believe in the values of the organisation. It is an important part of your employer brand and the thoroughness of the research, planning and ongoing commitment internally will determine its success.Leadership, data management, behaviours and policy are all important and the basis for this has to be a solid programme of research within your organisation.
