Diversity, Equality & Inclusion in the workplace

Much research has been done into diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) in the workplace, with research results confirming the myriad of benefits DE&I brings to organisations.

DE&I is not only about hiring people from different backgrounds but also ensuring that employees feel safe and playful in the workplace environment, which then helps to bring out employees’ innate creativity and drive performance.

Thank you, Adrian Tan, for having Ori Gold on your podcast, The Adrian Tan Show. We are glad he could share his experience and insights on this critical matter.
