DANISH DIVERSITY DAY
The theme of Danish Diversity Day 2024 is Inclusion starts with I - because we all have a responsibility to meet ourselves and others with curiosity, respect and trust.
There are many studies that show that companies that both work strategically to put together a diverse group of employees and to develop an inclusive culture also have better prerequisites for success, including.​
​
-
Increased employee retention: Creating a culture of belonging allows new and experienced employees to feel engaged and included.
-
Stronger Team Identity: Inclusive teams actively seek to help each other by building habits that intentionally include others.
-
Increased psychological safety: Inclusion ensures your employees feel safe to take risks, make mistakes, and show up as their authentic selves.
- Increased team performance: Inclusive habits elevate the collective IQ of diverse teams and lead to improved results.
