Description

How do you ensure diversity is central to your organisation's strategy and its contribution to business goals is recognised? What issues might you come up against? How can you get the results you are looking for?

Nine organisations took part in an action research study and share their insights in this report. Four key areas it's vital to consider are:
- how to communicate diversity messages to bring about change
- strategic development
- getting started and quick wins
- the representation of women at senior levels
