Diversity
When we talk about innovation, we also talk about multidisciplinary teams. Why? Because when we bring together a variety of professionals with different backgrounds, skills, and knowledge, we can analyze multiple aspects of the same problem. By examining these different perspectives, we discover solutions that individuals, working alone, might not see.
However, it's crucial to understand that even if your group is composed of multidisciplinary professionals, without a safe environment to express differences, the group will naturally lean toward homogeneity, where the diversity that should be complementary is lost.
Therefore, it’s essential that each person in the group feels included, accepted, and that they belong. Only then can they leverage their differences to achieve outstanding results.
Now, let's take a look at the survey questions connected to the Diversity metric:
Everyone is treated fairly at the company.
The company protects employees from discrimination.
At the company, everyone is respected, regardless of who they are or how they are.
I feel safe being myself with my colleagues.
With these insights and by considering correlations with other Organizational Climate metrics, you can develop strategies to improve or maintain the score of this metric.
