    Session Preview: DEI: Going beyond the headlines

    Organisations are facing important decisions regarding the future of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). Hear about our recent conversations with global C-suite leaders and how they are connecting inclusion to broader people-related initiatives.

    Key Takeaways

    • DEI is still a business imperative: Despite growing political scrutiny, diverse teams consistently outperform by driving innovation, deeper customer understanding, and employee engagement.
    • Language is evolving—but intent matters more than ever: Terms like “belonging”, “culture”, and “employee experience” are gaining ground. Organisations are shifting how they communicate DEI, focusing less on labels and more on outcomes.
    • Embedding inclusion into day-to-day operations: High-performing companies go beyond symbolic gestures. They integrate inclusion into leadership behaviours, talent practices, performance systems, and culture.
    • Technology and AI can enable or undermine inclusion: AI offers potential to reduce bias and scale inclusion, but only if applied ethically, and with human oversight in place.
    • A more personalised employee experience is taking shape: From inclusive benefits to tailored development pathways and internal mobility tools, organisations are rethinking how they create equitable opportunities for all employees.
