7 Ways to Reduce Friction Between Remote and Onsite Employees.pdfCenterfor HCI
As organizations prepare for a post-pandemic world, many are embracing hybrid schedules that allow some employees to work remotely at least part of the time.

Is an organization responsible for educating its workforce? CHCI recently conducted a roundtable conversation to answer this question, discussing the five-stage model of life model and current job requirements. It includes education, work, education, work, and retirement. To support this five-stage model of life, federal and state governments are incentivizing education for seniors. Many technical roles required by organizations demand specialized technical and soft skills, not four-year degrees. They fall into the category of “new collar” jobs. To keep up with these changes, organizations are looking at new ways to attract top talent by offering technology apprenticeships as a way for entry-level talent to jumpstart their careers post-high school.
Do you think your work must be 100% perfect, 100% of the time? Or that you haven’t truly earned your position? Does your confidence take a plunge when you suffer a setback? You are not alone. 70% of the U.S. population has experienced this feeling, known as impostor syndrome. Instead of hiding behind the fears of failure, we all need to face them, overcome them, and learn from them. The best way to defeat imposter syndrome is to change the workplace environment.
Purpose: A Key Driver of Organizational Performance.pdfCenterfor HCI
The first step in the key driver of organizational performance is purpose. In the current world, purpose provides clarity and stimulates innovation. Embracing clarity can open the door to allowing employees to see possibilities that they wouldn’t have otherwise seen. They understand the organization’s expectations of them and the reasons behind those expectations. It empowers them to deliberate new methods of doing their work to meet the organizational mission.

Diversity as a Revenue Engine What 16+ Studies Reveal.pdfCenterfor HCI
This document summarizes 16 studies that demonstrate how diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives can improve business performance and drive revenue. Key findings include: McKinsey found companies with diverse executive teams were 25% more likely to have above-average profits; the World Economic Forum found diverse companies had innovation revenues 19% higher; and diverse teams were twice as likely to make better decisions faster according to Forbes.

Born between 1997 and 2012, Gen Z currently makes up 20.35% of the US population.

The Hidden Story Behind Your Organization’s DEI Data.pdfCenterfor HCI
This document discusses how to collect meaningful diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) data from employees. It explains that DEI data goes beyond just demographics to also measure employee sentiment, satisfaction, and experiences. The key is to collect data on various metrics like demographics, attrition, compensation, and promotions broken down by employee group to identify gaps and focus areas for improvement. For example, analyzing survey results showed that most African American employees felt compensation and benefits were not equal, indicating potential bias that leadership should address. Collecting the right DEI data through metrics and surveys can help organizations better understand issues and drive positive cultural changes.
Great leaders know they wonu2019t always get it right, but they work with other experts, listen to their employees, keep learning, and set the intention to create a vibrant, healthy workplace and culture that embraces diversity.

How Do You Attract the Best Talent? Five Companies Exemplify Recruiting Innov...Centerfor HCI
We have seen the emergence of the Human Age, where talent is the new differentiator. Yet organizations around the world struggle to find the talent they need. This is especially problematic, because 75 million Baby Boomers will retire within the next 10 to 15 years. Between now and then, there will be a lot of jobs to fill, and if finding great talent is difficult now, organizations are going to have to up their recruiting game, or suffer the consequences of being understaffed.

DEI is Personal: My Story of Family, Kenya, and a Career
1. DEI is Personal: My Story of
Family, Kenya, and a Career
Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging
Diversity has been part of my life for as long as I
can remember. We just never called it diversity
when I was growing up. But it was there all along.
It started with being the youngest of eight children;
five brothers and two sisters, all of whom are very
different. Add in their friends and you get the
picture: a bustling, dynamic house with a never‐
ending, revolving door of high school and college
students. As the youngest, I spent a lot of time
observing the differences and similarities of my
siblings and their friends, trying to understand
what made each person tick.
My early memories start with having Rotary Youth

2. Exchange students in our house, which is when
where an American high school student lives in
another country for a year, while a student from
that country lives in an American home for the
same year. Over the years, we had students from
Sweden, Belgium, Japan, Bolivia and other
countries living with us, each bringing new
perspectives on culture, language, food and
traditions to my world.
I hung out with a fairly international crowd in
college with friends from Argentina, Mexico, France
and Kenya. After falling in love with my Kenyan
friend, we got married in an international wedding
with his family coming from India, Canada and
Kenya to help celebrate. I didn’t think much of it at
the time; however, someone recently said to me,
“You married a Kenyan two decades ago?! That just
wasn’t done back then.” Well, we did it. And we
also moved to Kenya to live and work. It was only
supposed to be for two years; we stayed for 12
years instead. My grandmother referred to Africa as
the dark continent; that should’ve warned me of
what was to come.
I hadn’t seen real racism growing up, but I saw it
firsthand in Kenya. I witnessed how people of
different skin colors treated each other on a daily
basis. I noticed how people expected less of people
with darker skin color, for no reason other than a
bias that skin color was linked to intelligence. And I
clearly saw how my husband was treated differently
than me in various situations. All those
observations shaped my beliefs around diversity,
inclusion and belonging.

3. After returning to the US, helping teams,
individuals and organizations talk about diversity
was my focus. I started with age diversity, being
dubbed The Generational Guru by the Washington
Post. Yet that felt limited and incomplete. So, I
moved into the wider arena of diversity, equity and
inclusion ﴾DEI﴿, using executive coaching,
leadership development, and human capital
consulting to drive those conversations forward.
Many people tell me that DEI conversations are
daunting. I get it; it’s hard to look at our own bias
and have these conversations. Yet, I’ve been doing
it my whole life, personally and professionally. And
my life is richer because of it.
I can help you start DEI conversations too. I’m
pleased to announce DEI360, an organization’s
starting point for Diversity, Equity & Inclusion ﴾DEI﴿.
It’s an easy, customizable, online assessment that
quickly allows organizational leadership to see how
they’re doing from the employee’s perspective.
Once an organization takes the assessment, our
team walks through the final report giving clear DEI
data, a snapshot of the internal DEI landscape, and
actionable next steps. Have questions? Check out
our FAQ or contact us directly.
