3 ways to impact your workplace culture

Multitude Consulting Group is a diverse collective of coaches that specialize in helping businesses prioritize solutions for the multitudes.  We exist to assist companies and their leaders shape and craft cultural values that will engage, inspire, sustain healthy working environments, and retain their employees.  

Companies with more than one employee will have: multiple backgrounds, differing preferences and unique attitudes, which usually result in a multitude of problems and few solutions.  We assist companies in pinpointing gaps within an organization’s desired culture.  These gaps, if not addressed, can lead to DEI complaints, productivity loss, heavy turnover & retention issues and ultimately an unhealthy overall work environment.  

Today, we want to highlight the importance of DEI. 

DEI refers to the principles of valuing and promoting Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion 

in all aspects of an organization or community. This includes the representation and inclusion of people from diverse backgrounds and experiences, and the creation of systems and policies that ensure equal opportunities for all members.

Promoting DEI is important because it helps to create a more inclusive and equitable culture, and also because it can have a positive impact on an organization’s bottom line. Research has shown that diverse and inclusive workplaces tend to be more innovative, have higher levels of employee engagement, and perform better financially.

Here are 3 ways that you can impact your workplace culture right now:

  1. Conduct a DEI audit to identify areas for improvement and set clear DEI goals.  
  2. Implement DEI training for all employees, to help educate and raise awareness, as well as work with external organizations and community groups to build partnerships and further promote DEI.
  3. Regularly measure and track progress towards DEI goals by having candid and honest conversations with your employees, and make adjustments as needed.

Implementing DEI initiatives takes time and effort, but it is absolutely worth it in the long run!  By creating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace, organizations can not only make a positive impact on society, but also create a more productive and successful business.
