The Diversity Agile framework

We use the Diversity Agile Framework to guide organisations to transact and thrive in diverse, complex and global environments. Based on the pillars of diversity, mutuality and inclusion, we provide organisations with a strategic and action-focussed roadmap in 5 stages to leverage the benefits of a highly diverse workforce. The three pillars that drive a diversity agile organisation:

Diversity: The range of attributes that people possess. How is your diversity distributed within your organisation?

Mutuality: The extent to which the diversity of your organisation reflects the diversity of your clients, customer base or the community. Are you representative?

Inclusion: The extent to which people have fair and equitable opportunities, are engaged and empowered. What do your people feel?

Benefits of having diversity success

Leadership that values inclusion

As a leader, understand and appreciate the differences in background and lived experience of your team to create an engaging, empowering and inclusive workplace where employees thrive and are supported to contribute fully. An inclusive culture needs inclusive leaders, who understand and get the best from their people.

Organisational learning through increased engagement

Create an inclusive organisational culture conducive to psychological safety to unlock the benefits of organisational learning. A diverse workforce will embody different perspectives and approaches to work. Learn how to manage differences to grow; as individuals, and as an organisation.

Innovation and creativity for problem solving and better decisions

Create teams that leverage diversity of thought and include the perspectives of the customers and communities that they will serve. Research on creativity and innovation has consistently shown the value of collaborating in diverse environments with multiple perspectives and worldviews to solve problems and make better decisions.

Reflect a positive reputation

Understand your diversity and encourage individuals from wide ranging backgrounds to work at all levels of your organisation to gain a reputation for being socially responsible. This helps attracting and retaining talent as well as relating more meaningfully with clients, investors and partners, as they find value in engaging with a leading organisation that understands and acts on diversity matters.

Increased competitiveness and local relevance

Perform better and be more competitive by adapting your products and services to better serve local needs, personalising your marketing messages to be more engaging, managing local laws and regulations more effectively and understanding the competitive landscape better with relevant local knowledge.

A stronger bottom line

As staff, customers, partners and investors increasingly care about diversity, Mckinsey research found that companies in the top quartile for gender or racial and ethnic diversity are more likely to have financial returns above their national industry medians. Companies in the bottom quartile in these dimensions are statistically less likely to achieve above-average returns.
