Research shows, only 21% of business leaders put a priority on creating an inclusive culture in the organizations they lead. And they’re not exactly in tune with whether employees really feel safe in their work environment.
A 2020 study by Accenture found, 84% of executives believe employees feel safe disclosing a disability.
But the reality is, only 65% of them do.
The same Accenture study showed, 76% of employees and 80% of executives don’t fully disclose a disability.
These statistics say a lot about psychological safety and belonging in the workplace.
So what exactly is psychological safety and belonging in the workplace? Why is it the cornerstone of creating the culture of any organization? And what happens when it isn’t there?
These are just a few of the questions we explore with our expert guest in this episode.
In 2021, Andrea D. Carter did pioneering research on workplace belonging that’s revolutionizing how organizations measure, analyze and implement belonging strategies.
She’s established a new global benchmark for creating an inclusive corporate culture.
Have a listen to this compelling, insightful conversation with Andrea D. Carter.
