2. Leader Narrative
Have a clear authentic narrative which is visible as to why diversity and inclusion is important to you.

4. Actions
Inclusive CEO members must ensure that they are working towards or already have…
Insight and Data: Deep dived on a broad spectrum of qualitative and quantitative data across the organisation as a foundation to understanding root causes, with a view to removing barriers to obtain the data.
Goals: Set clear goals from a Board level to drive an inclusive culture where all can thrive
Strategy: Diversity and inclusion in its broadest sense (ie not just one strand) explicit, clear and embedded in your strategy and it’s positioned as an integral enabler/component to achieving strategic ambitions.
Leadership: Empowered your board to fully champion the agenda and both Chair and CEO are united in this position.
Communication: The overall strategy with D&I embedded is communicated further empowering the business to prioritise diversity and inclusion in the day to day running of their business.
Board Diversity: A diverse board and topics such as board succession are also a regular feature.
