IIP110 The Role of DEI in Remote Teams’ Mental Health & Well-being


Listen Later

Most people think DEI is a nice-to-have for their organizations — and they’re often one of the first programs to go in recessive periods.

 

But DEI is not only a way to keep your best people and ideas and support your bottom-line, it’s actually non-negotiable for employees. And it influences their decisions around who they work for and the type of performance they will give while they’re there. 

 

In this episode, we’ll be talking about some of the findings from a virtual roundtable we hosted with DEI practitioners in the tech industry in April 2023 to discuss how they’re expanding their strategies while considering employees’ desires for well-being and flexible work.

 

We also announce our upcoming mini-series in July 2023 on “Hybrid Work & Company Culture” where we’ll share more about our roundtable conversation. 

 

In This Episode:

[2:08] The difference in company culture today vs pre-pandemic.

[5:21] The importance of understanding the needs of remote employees for DEI.

[7:47] What is the actual cost of poor mental health to employers in 2023?

[11:51] How the conversation around work-life balance and well-being in the tech industry are redefining company culture.

[13:36] How to help remote teams in self-identifying and managing mental health.
