This week on The New P&L – Principles & Leadership in Business podcast series we speak to the amazing Vivian Acquah - Inclusive Workplace Wellness Advocate, DEI Consultant, Trainer, Strategist, and Keynote Speaker.
As an inclusive workplace wellness advocate, Vivian advises leaders and brands on how to keep their team members engaged, energised, and safe in a sustainable manner. Vivian focuses on working towards sustainable employability in a holistic way: incorporating all elements of wellness and wellbeing, including physical, mental, career, social, community, and financial wellness and as well as purposefully incorporating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
Vivian is also founder and host of the Amplify DEI conference – a global virtual seminar in September this year featuring an incredible line up of over 70 speakers and authorities on workplace wellness, the future of work and DEI. We discussed with Vivian:
· The Amplify DEI conference, which opens on Sept 28th and features over 70 international speakers
· How CEOs can ensure cultural and social diversity and inclusion becomes part of a company’s thinking and not just part of its dialogue
· Symbolism, pragmatism and authenticity when it comes to a commitment to DEI
· What a more humanised workplace looks like
· Algorithmic bias in HR & recruiting tools
· How our siloed existence over the last 18 months may affect both the attitudes and the reality of diversity and inclusion on the workplace
· What we need to do to understand and walk in each other’s shoes in business
· How you can build a powerful culture of positive micro-actions and small gestures
· The next generation of leaders and their approach to DEI
