Inclusive Insights: Diversity and Inclusion in the workplace

In partnership with Diversity Mark, we are thrilled to announce a new series of monthly online sessions that aim to support businesses in creating more diverse and inclusive workplaces.

By sharing best practice and raising awareness, we will explore a variety of themes including race, age, gender, and social mobility, and examine how these themes intersect.

Becoming a Talent Magnet: Rethinking Hiring to Attract Diverse Talent | Tuesday 21 April | 9:15AM - 11:15AM | In-Person |Ulster University\, York Street\, Belfast

As part of our Inclusive Insights series in partnership with Diversity Mark, this in-person event will help employers rethink how they hire by focusing on what truly drives performance: skills, potential, and capability.

Following the success of our first in-person Inclusive Insights event, we are excited to announce that our second in-person event will focus on nuanced approaches to hiring great talent.

Traditional recruitment often overlooks talented candidates who don’t fit conventional criteria. This interactive event will help employers rethink hiring by focusing on skills, potential, and capability rather than just CVs or formal qualifications.

This will feature representatives from WorkPlus and a case study from NI Water.

Ideal for HR and recruitment professionals, this event will include:

• Practical strategies for inclusive, skills-focused recruitment

• learn how to identify and assess potential effectively

• Real-world examples of organisations that have successfully widened their talent pool.

Please note that a photographer will be present during this session.

Events are free-of-charge and attendees must be a member of Business in the Community and/or a Diversity Mark Signatory.
