LEADERSHIP & INCLUSION




PVDB
LEADERSHIP & INCLUSION IBM 2023-2024

,Leadership & Inclusion – Week 1: Getting to DEI business, self-leadership & inclusive
leadership.

1. The business case.
1.1. Refresh our memory.
DIVERSITY
- Differences of identity (race, age, gender identity, ethnicity, religion, nationality, sexual orientation, ability, …),
neurodiversity, experiences, backgrounds, …
INCLUSION
- Feeling & being valued, welcomed and being able to contribute within a team/company/industry. Able and
welcomed to be your ‘true self’.
EQUITY
- An approach that ensures everyone access to the same opportunities by correcting and addressing the imbalance.
Equity recognizes that advantages and barriers exist, and that, as a result, we don’t all start from the same place.

Diversity is a fact.
- Counting employees with certain characteristics
- Diversity of thought (different pov’s – thinking in a different way – because of experiences)
- What has influenced the way you think?
o Media
o Education

Inclusion is an act.
- Not our default mode
- Conscious & continuous effort
o Difficult to achieve inclusion = people and companies change; new people are coming, and it is hard to
achieve constant inclusion
- Feeling = more difficult to measure
- Inclusion = something you must DO
- When is there inclusion? When everyone feels the same
- Everyone in an in-group = will feel inclusion
- Everyone in out-group = will feel less inclusion

1.2. Why do companies need a business case?
Need of a business case…
- Provides justification for undertaking a DEI project.
o -> “The why” and motivation why they have inclusion and why they invest in it
- Evaluates cost and risks versus benefits.
o -> Provides a rationale for the preferred solution (storytelling)
o Try to put numbers to it to prove benefits for the company.
- Approval for action
o -> Goal of presenting BC: create buy-in, obtain resources &
o “GO” for DEI project.

,How will DEI work help our organization achieve its goals?
- Benefits (What do we gain from acting?) VS Risks (What happens if we do not act?)
- Research on impact in five domains:
o Talent (attract and keeping in the company)
o Team Performance
o Innovation
o Customer Intimacy (bond with the customers and product)
o Shareholder Value (people who invest time and money)

1.3. Benefits in 5 domains
Talent
- 67% of job seekers believe diversity is important when considering companies and job offers.
- 83% of Millennials say they are engaged at work when they believe the organization fosters an inclusive culture.
- Millennials are the most demographically diverse generation in the workforce, with 44% categorized as part of a
minority race or ethnic group. Generation Z will be even more diverse.
- Companies with more diversity and inclusion in the workplace have a 22% lower turnover than those without.

Team performance
- Diversity of thought enables teams to spot risks, reducing these by up to 30%.
- Organizations with inclusive cultures are 3 x as likely to be high performing.
- Inclusive leadership can increase team performance by 17% and increase team collaboration by 29%.
- Teams that follow an inclusive process make decisions 2x faster with half the number of meetings.
- Diverse teams make better decisions up to 87% of the time.

Innovation

, 1.4. Business case VS fairness case
Arguments against the BC
- DEI commitment considered less genuine.
- Candidates underrepresented groups anticipate less belonging, being stereotyped or seen as interchangeable (not
recognized as unique individuals)
- Lowers interests of underrepresented candidates to join organization.
- Research is doubtful & presents an oversimplified reality.
- BC sets unrealistic expectations regarding enhanced profits.
o Reason: Instrumental framing
▪ Candidates from underrepresented groups are framed as a means to accomplish something.

Arguments for the BC
- The BC works in other business domains.
- Leaders want numbers to justify an investment in DEI.
- Leaders like a ready-made answer for the question “Why are you investing in DEI?”
o Alternatives:
▪ Fairness case/moral justification: Diversity in itself is a goal.
▪ No justification: “You don’t have to explain why you value innovation, resilience, or integrity. So
why treat diversity any different?” (Georgeac & Rattan)

2. Inclusive leadership
2.1. Introducing & embedding
What does inclusion mean? Why is it important?
- Inclusion is important in companies,
- It leads to better.
o financial results, creativity & innovation, more customer focus, more diverse talent, …
- Mostly discussed among leadership & HR
o -> results in marketing & communication efforts, statements
o on the website, various HR practices
- But inclusion should happen where it matters: in the actual behaviors of those closest to the employees (their
managers and colleagues)
- This training helps people, colleagues, managers to be more including.

2.2. Simulating
Setting & rules
- Typical network event: You want to talk to high-status people and avoid low-status people.
- You cannot ask what your identity is.
- You cannot tell others what their identity is.
- You may be explicit in your behavior.
- You may step out of the simulation at any time.
