Although the term "DEI" might not appear in every organization's 2025 playbook, let’s be clear—its strategic priorities are here to stay. Employee engagement, inclusion & belonging, DEI education and training, data analytics and reporting, internal talent review & development, and workforce recruitment are not just buzzwords; they’re the foundation of resilient, innovative workplaces. So, the question is: Is your organization reframing its DEI strategy for 2025, or has it fallen victim to the shifting cultural climate? If your focus has changed or even disappeared entirely, we would like to hear about it. How is your company addressing these priorities, even if they’re not under the DEI banner? Let’s start a conversation about what doing better looks like for tomorrow's workplace. Even better, if you are an individual who wants to be better at doing this work in 2025, reach out. #WorkplaceInclusion #DEI #EmployeeEngagement #WorkforceRecruitment #DoBetterPeople

📢 The intensity and frequency of employee activism is on the rise, driven by fierce internal and external pressures, expectations and values. 💢 The potential for conflict, as these collide with corporate policy, ethics and action (or inaction) is great.  However, there are ways to work with and manage employee activism to mitigate disputes and improve wellbeing, engagement and innovation. But, it isn't how most organisations think. CEDR's latest white paper tackles this topic, drawing together our experience and extensive research on how to bring about positive and sustainable change. ⬆️ The Rise of Employee Activism 🧠 What is the Current Thinking? 💡 A Different Way Forward Access the white paper here - https://hubs.ly/Q02thvBZ0 "𝘈𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘰𝘺𝘦𝘦 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘮 𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘪𝘨𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘰𝘺𝘦𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘰𝘺𝘦𝘳𝘴.

Reimagining the future of the workplace goes beyond any single industry. From yesterday’s DMAW & Social Impact Staff Retention Project (SISR) discussion focused on nonprofit employee engagement, we learned that key challenges like burnout, unclear growth opportunities, and lack of support are common across sectors. But organizations can retain talent by offering flexibility, supportive leadership, and competitive benefits. Here are four steps to thrive: 1. Listen to employees. 2. Make decisions based on feedback. 3. Address critical “chopping block” issues. 4. Carve out alternative career paths. The future workplace is all about strategic foresight and human-centered leadership. Thank you again to Donna Tschiffely, Katy Jordan, Michelle Flores Vryn, CFRE and Evan Wildstein!
