Enhancing diversity within organizations is a shared priority for many in the recruitment field. However, navigating the challenges in sourcing diverse talent remains a significant hurdle. By focusing on innovative strategies and building inclusive networks, we can work together to create more equitable opportunities for all candidates. Let's continue to push the boundaries and make diversity a reality in our workplaces. #DiversityAndInclusion #RecruitmentChallenges #TheronSolutions

Another great session this week with @Adam Tobias on ED& I We’ve all seen and read posts that state diverse teams improve performance, but it was good to be able to discuss the data. Adam shared numerous reports and data from well-respected global organisations that measured performance of businesses with greater diversity, versus those without. The numbers he shared speak for themselves: ☑ 87% of organisations made better decisions (Gartner) ☑ 75% are better at problem solving (HRB) ☑ 45% generated higher innovation revenue (BCG) Inclusive recruitment plays a huge role in increasing the diversity of your workforce. Without an inclusive recruitment process, bias can creep in, leading to firms hiring carbon copies of existing employees rather than embracing talent who don’t fit the mould. Boston Hale are proud to be Inclusive Recruiters, with a recruitment process that is inclusive and fair for all. Are you ready to boost your ED&I efforts with an inclusive recruiter?

I was reading about a report from Eploy whose 2024 UK Candidate Attraction Report showed 34% of employers said recruiting diverse employees is a major challenge, second only to a scarcity of qualified candidates with the right skills or experience. It is so important for employers to realise that the key to attracting diverse candidates is to start from within by creating the conditions for diverse employees to thrive. When your organisation is known as one where people with minoritized characteristics can achieve their full potential, trust me, attracting them won't feel like or be such a major challenge... #inclusion #diversity #equity #leadership #recruitment

𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐄𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲: 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧’𝐬 𝐇𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡 🎀 As we commemorate Women’s History Month, it’s a time to reflect on the remarkable strides American women have made in the workforce over the past decades. From increased labor force participation to their significant contributions shaping the modern workplace, women have been pivotal in driving progress. However, amid these achievements, it's crucial to acknowledge the challenges that persist, particularly in accessing top leadership positions and achieving pay equity. ✨ Women represent 51% of the college-educated workforce but are underrepresented in high-paying occupations. ✨Despite strides, women still earn 82 cents for every dollar earned by men. ✨ Women made up 47% of the U.S. civilian labor force in 2023, up from 30% in 1950.
