The case ‘for’ being a diverse and inclusive employer is irrefutable. There is a plethora of research dating back over the last 10 years or more that shows how businesses who provide the same opportunities for each individual, regardless of their identity or background, are more attractive as an employer and enjoy higher staff retention rates, which in turn boosts productivity and positively impacts the bottom line. Business is simply better when it is diverse and inclusive. 

But while the sales pitch is easy to buy into, actually developing it in practice continues to be a challenge for a great many employers. Here we will take a look at some of the most effective ways that this can be accomplished. 

Millennials (b.1981-1996). The very utterance of the word has been known to prompt eye rolling among many baby boomers (b. 1946-1965) and Generation Xers (b.1966-1980). As for Generation Zers (b.1997-2012), well, this could be one demographic that’s even less understood than their Millennial forebearers despite the fact that a significant number of them may have been in the workforce for the last seven years.

However, as an employer, understanding who you have within your teams is critical both in terms of forging effective working relationships from a top down, bottom up and linear perspective but also in the way organisations seek to position themselves as an employer of choice.

A HUGE welcome to Stephen who joins the Hooray team today as our Lead Consultant in our Professional Services division.

With an impressive 20+ years in recruitment and vast knowledge across the financial services industry, Stephen is a senior recruiter and expert client recruitment partner.
