On 22 April, HR magazine hosted a webinar on how HR can foster a sense of belonging in the workplace, in partnership with Glint. The topic proved popular, and here the panel answers questions from the audience we did not have time for including their one top tip for improving belonging, the unique challenges for large organisation and startups, and maintaining belonging virtually.
Diversity and inclusion has risen up the agenda over the past year but all too often efforts focus only on recruitment. We asked what more can HR do in earnest to really make employees feel they can bring their whole selves to work?
Questions were answered by panelists: Shubhang Dave, head of people science, EMEA at Glint; Joanne Conway, deputy head of diversity and inclusion at EY UK&I; senior HR consultant Dawn Morton-Young; and Angela O’Connor, CEO and founder of The HR Lounge.
