TWA UK: Celebrating International Women’s Day What does this mean to us?   Jacques-Edouard Gueden: Inclusion? Creating an environment where all individuals are respected, valued, and have equal opportunities to contribute, regardless of their differences such as race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or background!  Isn’t it a reality? Not yet …we’re making progress every day….we must go faster ❤️ Katherine Pugh: Inclusion to me means an environment where everyone feels comfortable to be their complete self. A diverse group where everyone’s ideas are listened to and valued. Aurora Gayango Pérez: To make individuals not only belong but thrive. Jonathan Leaper: People are different in so many ways - what we need to do is embrace that and make everyone feel part of the team and use those differences to learn from, develop our own skills and drive a better performance. Monia Tempesta: Nurturing an environment where diverse voices are not only heard but valued. Natasha Jordan (Adam): Inclusion, everyone is valued, are equal and we support each other. Lydia Reeves: For me, inclusivity means an environment where every employee feels valued and appreciated, where we can celebrate our differences, create a real sense of community, and achieve great things together.

Danish Diversity Week from April 15th to April 19th is a week fully crammed with physical and online events sharing the common goal of creating a movement towards more diverse and inclusive workplaces. "The overall theme of the week is 𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗜. This means to me, that we all have a responsibility to meet ourselves and others with curiosity, respect and trust. Only then can we embrace others. As a company, however, we are also very well aware of the role we play in the fight for ensuring equal rights, non-discrimination and well-being of LGBTQ+ people in a world where unfortunately that is still not given. As a company we have a special responsibility to deliver on that. We are convinced that diversity, inclusion and non-discrimination make us stronger both as people and as a business. The different perspectives give us the fuel to create something better for our customers as well as create a better working environment for everyone to thrive in and unlock their full potential", says HR Director Tina Bodin, EG.

🗣️ “Initially, I didn’t think that my cultural identity influenced my professional behaviour. However, on reflection, I realise it’s deeply ingrained. Lithuanians are known for their strong work ethic and loyalty, traits I embody in my professional endeavours. These traits, my cultural identity, have undoubtedly been an asset; motivating me to pursue higher education, and driving my ambition and determination in the workplace, too.” 🔴 Koletta Jurskyte, our Digital Marketing Manager, makes an excellent point. It is easy to forget how our cultural identity can have a positive impact on the workplace, which is why it is important to recognise and celebrate it. 💻 Read Koletta’s blog to learn more about her cultural identity and how celebrating Global Inclusion Week 2024 can help your organisation recognise the contributions of your colleagues, allowing them to flourish and be their true selves at work: https://lnkd.in/dNiQPYRu 🏷️ #GlobalInclusionWeek2024 #GlobalInclusionWeek #Inclusion #Diversity #EDI

Hey I’m famous! It has been really interesting to reflect about what does my cultural identity mean in the workplace. You can read my thoughts in the blog and also sign up for Global Inclusion Week!

🌈Embracing Equality and Celebrating Diversity 🌈 This Saturday Copenhagen Pride Week kicks off, and we're reminded of the importance of fostering an environment where every individual feels empowered, respected, and valued for who they are. We believe that a diverse and inclusive workplace is not just a goal – it's a fundamental value that drives our success. Diversity is not only about the visible differences we can see, but also about the unique perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds that each of us brings to the table. In LTP we proudly celebrate this diversity because we understand that it's a wellspring of creativity and innovation. Talent knows no boundaries and no limits. LTP – Crafted With Pride. #CopenhagenPrideWeek #EqualityandDiversity #PrideAtWork #InclusionMatters #WeStandTogether

🌟 Embracing Diversity: A Personal Journey and Community Call to Action 🌟 As we reflect on the recent International Women’s Day, I'm compelled to share the journey that brought me, a woman of Indian descent, to the breathtaking Great Southern region of Western Australia. 🌏 Despite its natural beauty, my integration into the cultural tapestry demanded resilience and an extra mile of effort. But it's through these hurdles that I've witnessed firsthand the transformative power of diversity and the urgent need for inclusivity in nurturing vibrant communities. 💪 While the spotlight on International Women’s Day has dimmed, the importance of diversity and inclusion remains as vital as ever. We must move beyond symbolism and commit to creating genuine opportunities for everyone in our community to thrive. It's about fostering an environment where diverse voices are not only heard but valued and respected. 🌈 In the Great Southern region, as in any community, diversity enriches our collective experience. Yet, achieving true representation remains a challenge. Diversity initiatives often fall short, serving as checkboxes rather than catalysts for change. We must dismantle the barriers to inclusivity and actively create spaces where individuals from all backgrounds can thrive. It's time to challenge stereotypes, advocate for supportive policies, and foster empathy and understanding. 💬 As someone who's navigated the complexities of settling into a new community, I understand the importance of creating a welcoming atmosphere for all. It's up to each of us to champion diversity and inclusion, ensuring no one is left behind due to fear or uncertainty. Together, let's embark on a journey towards inclusivity, where every member of our community feels empowered to excel and contribute their unique perspective. 🚀 Let's not let the momentum of International Women’s Day fade away; instead, let's embody its true essence – a commitment to equality, empowerment, and inclusivity for all. 💫 https://lnkd.in/gq-jRaZN
