What happens when ED&I becomes another campaign to communicate rather than a culture to create?
Internal communicators are often closer to employee sentiment than many leaders. But are we using that insight to challenge thinking, influence decisions and shape culture?
Samantha Lubanzu explores how internal communication professionals can move beyond simply communicating ED&I to becoming trusted strategic advisers who can have the conversations leaders need to hear, connect lived experience and evidence to organisational priorities, and turn inclusion from an initiative into everyday practice.
