within the workplace has significantly become a business necessity rather than a banner
companies use to show their commitment to embracing differences and change. Diversity and
Inclusion lead to more innovation, more opportunities for all, better access to talent, and better
business performance. . There has been an increased growth of civil society pushing for the
fulfillment of diversity and inclusion in the workplace and other places in society with the use of
legislation.
Diversity and inclusion is quite simply the right thing to do by creating equal rights for everyone.
This is still a work in progress but statistics show that we still have a long way to go. When we
take gender equality into consideration, women account for 60% of college graduates but only

Diversity plugs the talent gap for business- and is also good for society. Today, one of the biggest
concerns for CEOs worldwide is not having the right people to run and grow their businesses. So
theyre now started to look to diversity to accomplish this. Good workplace diversity doesnt just
benefit the businesses themselves, but also the economies they operate in a fact which was
underlined by research from the non-profit organization Catalyst. This shows that increasing the

people of different backgrounds and with a variety of experiences and working styles, we learn
