Davos panel discusses diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace

Exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic, ageing populations, tighter border controls and demands for more flexible working arrangements have put the labor market under intense pressure, fundamentally impacting the U.S., U.K. and euro zone economies. In navigating these challenges, prioritizing diversity, equity and inclusion throughout the business remains of paramount importance for companies worldwide. This panel explores the strategies companies are employing to ensure the promotion of diversity, equity and inclusion is continued during this volatile period. EBRD Chief Economist Beata Javorcik, SAP Board Member Thomas Saueressig and Standard Chartered Group Head of HR Tanuj Kapilashrami join the panel.

The first employees to be let go from companies are those in DEI roles. What does that tell you?

Something something something women most effected... Diversity inclusion diversity women most effected....

As soon as I hear diversity, inclusion, and equity, I tune out. These issues are a description of groups, not an action. Stop hiring unqualified people to fit a checkbox.

Tired of this topic. How about best qualified gets the damn job. Men prefer to work with things and women with people … no amount of social engineering will undo 250,000 years of evolution over night.

But that's the thing. Some men love working with people. Unless you call me for an interview and give me a chance how would you know? Diversity is not just men/women. As you get older people will just assume you aren't as good with new technologies, not flexible, etc. Will you like to be excluded without being talked to just based on people's assumptions?

@@FutureCommentary1 you're missing the entire point .. maybe you're age has caused you to lose focus and that's why you're not getting jobs..
