#ERGs are boosting #diversity and #inclusion across companies. In fact, I’d argue ERGs are the true champions of a workplace culture that celebrates EVERYONE.

We’re more than halfway through the year, and it’s a good time to remember that #leadershipskills that support #DEI are more essential than ever. #Agility, #empathy, and #emotionalintelligence are still key for healthy, diverse workplaces.

It’s no surprise to read that vulnerable #leaders are encouraging wellbeing across organizations. But research shows only 56% of employees would tell their leaders about their #mentalhealth struggles — which means we still need to tackle the stigma.

If there’s any doubt #AI will transform the #employeeexperience, then look no further. AI’s insights like #performancereviews & productivity metrics are creating a comprehensive & meaningful #EX.

#Employees want value—so how do we give it to them as #leaders? By focusing on #humansustainability—providing employees with everything from greater #wellbeing to #purpose. #HR has a huge role in integrating this kind of #peoplefirst culture. More here.

#ExtendedReality (#XR) is revolutionizing the #learningexperience for employees. How? XR’s #immersive #technology is rooted in versatility — which makes it a more #accessible and unique #learningplatform. Do you see your workplace using XR soon?

As the #generationalgap persists in the #workplace, #leaders are turning to #AI to bridge it. AI’s greatest advantage is that it can create more seamless #feedback systems — promoting #empathy between #employees with varying backgrounds.

As we close on #PrideMonth, it’s time to face some tough statistics. 36% of employees feel they can’t be themselves at work, and another 36% work remotely because the office isn’t #inclusive. It’s time we change that — for good.

Did you know three-quarters of recruiters would rather hire a less experienced candidate with #AI #skills than a more experienced candidate without them? That’s a clear indication that the #futureofwork is AI-driven.

#Carewashing — the gap between what leaders believe is #culturesofcare vs employees' actual daily experiences at work— is negatively impacting #wellbeing, to no one’s surprise. Here’s how to bridge that gap according to @HarvardBiz

It’s important that this #LearningDisabilityWeek, we celebrate the unique strengths and abilities of people with learning disabilities — especially in the workplace. As #leaders, we need to advocate for better support and resources.

Could your next colleague be a digital version of you? #Digitalhumans—#AI empowered representative that look and speak exactly like you could help boost #productivity, taking over mundane tasks & #meetings on your behalf. Definitely an interesting concept

Once again, #empathy wins in the workplace. I wouldn’t even call it a secret weapon at this point — we know its power and influence on elevating quite literally everything in the workplace. Still some great advice here:

Everything from ordering food to answering emails is done through a screen — no wonder we’re so overwhelmed. The bottom line is, our wellbeing strategies need to focus on #digitalwellness, too. More here.

Happiness at work isn’t an elusive concept, and it definitely shouldn’t be a far-fetched goal. Often, small changes go a long way. For instance, @Gallup says playing to your strengths at work can elevate happiness by 57%.

#Processoriented mindsets are predominant in corporate settings where #AI is thriving. But leaders need to remember to prioritize ways of work that are distinctly human too, like #creativity and growth.

Good news — #employeesatisfaction is at an all-time high of 63%. But how do we move that needle to get that number even higher? Diversity, flexibility, and more #l&d opportunities (all things we’ve heard before) still stand.

https://t.co/pxQitjRICU reveals that 72% of extensive AI users report high productivity, compared to 56% of all organizations. While AI boosts productivity, leaders must still prioritize team collaboration, communication, and innovation.

Did you know 75% of employees would appreciate it if their employers told them they cared about #mentalhealth? That’s how little it can take — which is all the more reason we need to be more open about #wellbeing this #MayMentalHealthAwarenessMonth.

For the third year, #HRtech is the top investment priority for HR leaders. In fact, 48% plan to boost budgets in 2024.
