Catalyst’s research demonstrates that leaders who attempt to implement a more integrated view of diversity, equity, and inclusion are able to establish the foundation for a more innovative and collaborative workforce. To create a “more human workplace,” leaders should:

1. Develop, recognize, track, and reward inclusive teamwork skills such as listening, curiosity, humility, creativity, and courage.
2. Update leadership expectations and training so leaders from the top down are modelling these behaviours.
3. Hold teams accountable for collaborating and innovating across departments, cultures, technologies, and regions.
4. Build an empathetic workplace where employees can speak their truth – which may result in a culture that is less likely to tolerate gender inequality and sexual harassment.
