Fly Your Freak Flag! Authenticity @ Work

SHRM 2015 Annual Conference

Organizations have been much more successful at increasing the diversity of their workforces than they have at actually allowing people to be different at work. More diversity, not necessarily more inclusion. To have a culture of inclusion (rather than assimilation) there must be a focus on individual authenticity. Your first and most important strategy to an inclusive organizational culture is making your unique contribution. This presentation will help you understand the link between authenticity and inclusion as well as provide simple practices to be more authentic at work.
