Let’s level set…
Authenticity
• Authenticity is essential in marketing because it
builds trust and credibility with your target audience
• Candidates today are more informed and savvier
than ever before, and they can quickly spot insincerity
or inauthenticity in advertising or brand messaging
• Moreover, authenticity can set you apart from your
competitors. In a crowded marketplace, businesses
that stand out by being authentic can attract and
retain talent who share their values and beliefs. Being
authentic can also help you build a strong brand
identity and reputation, which is essential for
long-term success
Diversity
•Diversity is important in marketing for
several reasons. Marketing campaigns that
reflect diversity can be more effective in
reaching a broader audiences
•When people see individuals from diverse
backgrounds in marketing materials, they are
more likely to feel represented and included
•This can lead to increased engagement and a
stronger connection between the audience
and the brand

FINAL
THOUGHTS
•Attracting diverse talent is not a one-time event, but a
continuous process that requires commitment and effort from
everyone in the organization
•Focus on authenticity: it's important to be authentic in your
efforts to attract diversity. Don't just try to check a box or meet
a quota. Instead, focus on creating a genuine and inclusive
environment that truly values diversity
•Authenticity is critical in marketing because it fosters trust,
credibility, engagement, and loyalty among your target
audience, sets you apart from your competitors, and helps you
build a strong brand identity, reputation and attract top talent
