Diversity and Inclusion – a huge topic currently and for good reason.
Regardless of business’ trying to navigate through unprecedented times with the ongoing pandemic, D&I has remained a priority.
Ensuring you have a diverse workforce has arguably, never been as scrutinised as it is at present, leading to a real emphasis on how and which businesses are acting on their D&I agenda. New data revealing that globally, searches for D&I roles have increased by 122%, coupled with the knowledge we have from numerous studies and research, shows that the importance of D&I is being taken seriously across (the majority of) businesses as well as employees and is an area that if not already, will need to be a key focus for businesses moving forward.

1 in 6.8 people experience mental health problems in the workplace, so 5 months into a new year and the topic of conversation in the office turning to burn-out doesn’t seem too surprising. The past 12+ months have been nothing short of exhausting; whether you were furloughed or working full-time the fact remains, we have all experienced an unfamiliar and often lonely year – with the lack of social interaction, job uncertainty, and toilet roll shortage (remember that!) it's normal that now the office is opening back up and we are re-entering the beer gardens your initial excitement may be overshadowed by anxiety.
COVID-19 has been a driver of business change since 2020, one of these key changes are processes moving online including the hiring process. Businesses have quickly adapted to virtually interviewing, assessing talent online and onboarding virtually too.
After two years of uncertainty and navigating through a pandemic, one thing has remained consistent – the driving force that is improving both awareness and action on diversity and inclusion. It has been proven a diverse workforce contributes to both an elevated level of productivity whilst enabling different decision-making processes to lead to better performance. The misplaced fear, still held by some leaders, that a diverse workforce cannot collaborate as well now feels firmly discredited, indeed there is evidence to suggest diverse teams outperform non-diverse teams by 35%. Many are having a period of reflection on how to improve their diversity and inclusion, and a leading factor in this is how to improve their hiring processes.
Executive Network Group are pleased to have discovered, through our partnered recruitment campaigns, that diversity is becoming less of an exclusive boardroom topic and is increasingly a priority when hiring, and businesses are thinking now more than ever about how to engage and attract more diverse talent pools and how to take meaningful steps in their inclusion agenda.
This survey was used to gather thoughts and opinions to ensure ENG’s services continue to support strategic, operational, and geographical objectives throughout and beyond these turbulent times. The findings of this research will be used to provide business leaders and executives in HR, Procurement, and Talent Acquisition functions with a series of white papers, webinars, and market updates.
The survey was sent to over 600 Business Leaders, HR Leaders, and Talent Acquisition teams both by emails sent directly, as well as questions posted on LinkedIn polls.
