Description
Diverse teams are now acknowledged to be critical in creating organizations that are innovative and responsive at a time of changing needs. Many government organizations have set targets to increase the diversity of their workforce across gender, ethnicity, disability, and cognitive diversity, and the US government’s Office of Personnel Management has highlighted how diversity leads to greater innovation in government, as employees from varied backgrounds bringing different perspectives, ideas, and solutions to the workplace that result in new products and services.
This session will look at how governments can harness such insights, looking at how they can recruit and retain a more diverse workforce, and how they can create policymaking and delivery structures to harness these insights.
