#27 Diversity and Inclusion, with Dr Helen Turnbull
Why is it important for organizations to be thinking about inclusion and diversity?
If you figure out how to do inclusion properly, you will gain commitment instead of compliance, and achieve more loyalty and creativity.
3 immutable forces around inclusion that will never change;
1 dominance
2 unconscious bias – have to be vigilant
3 degrees of difference
Permeable factors:
1 affinity bias – 'mini-me' syndrome
2 assimilation – if people withhold their best ideas, leaders are not getting their best selves, they’re getting a simulator.
3 political correctness – walking on egg shells; afraid to speak to each other across differences. Can’t give honest feedback because might be accused of being racist.
A leader has to listen to creative people e.g. Google company allows people to work 10% of time on their own projects.
Psychological safety – one thing leaders can do is to go round the meeting, even a Zoom room, and ask each person to speak without interruption. While it’s time-consuming, it buys you loyalty and commitment, because everyone’s voice matters.
