 HOW DIVERSITY AND INNOVATION DRIVE GREAT
CULTURES IN THE FUTURE OF WORK

By Natalia Peart, from Forbes, 17 March 2021

Workplace culture has become an increasing priority for both employers and employees in
recent years. Your organization's culture, or its shared beliefs and values, define how your

E6
organization does business, how teams interact with one another, customers, etc. Not only does
a strong culture inspire high commitment, but it also drives high performance. McKinsey's
research of over 1,000 organizations and three million people found that companies with

U
cultures in the top quartile perform 200% better than those in the bottom quartile.

G
Even beyond the compelling business case, employee sentiment also supports the importance

SC
of a strong culture in driving success. A research found that 94% of executives and 88% of
employees believe a distinct workplace culture is essential to business success. Hired found
that company culture is the second most important factor candidates consider when considering
whether to work for a company beyond compensation. A survey of 3,000 employees revealed

/D
that 68% of employees would consider quitting their current job to work for an organization with
stronger viewpoints on the social issues that matter most to them.

m
As hybrid work models are increasingly likely to become our new normal, companies and

co
employees alike are now under constant pressure to adapt to new business strategies, new
ways of working, and new technologies. To succeed, companies must therefore view the future
e.
of work in a whole new way. With ail the places where work now occurs, we need to see work
as an activity that is no longer defined by where it's happening.This shift means that employees
in
now need to experience their work culture virtually from wherever they are. So,the future of work
requires companies to not only be able to sustain strong cultures across different teams and
nl

geographies, but they must also be able to foster innovation in their culture to stay a step ahead
in uncharted waters. At the heart of innovative cultures,the ones that meet today's challenges
-o

and look ahead and solve tomorrow's challenges is their ability to use diverse ideas and
perspectives as a competitive advantage.
a
pt

Diverse workplaces drive innovation because the more diverse teams are along many
dimensions-culture, ethnicity, gender , sexuality, age, experience level, educational
om

background, expertise, etc.-the more likely they are to draw inspiration from seemingly
unrelated places. These idea combinations lead to more unlikely and more innovative
ideas.Organizations that can harness their people's diversity are also more likely to understand
their customers and what they value. That is why research evidence shows that diversity
.c

unlocks innovation and drives market growth in companies.

w

Despite the strong business, employee, and moral imperative, the lack of diversity in
organizations, especially at the higher levels of leadership, is an often-discussed problem with
w

little progress. ln tact, in some cases, we've even gone backward. We currently have only five
Black Fortune 500 CEOs, down from a high of six Black CEOs in 2012. And just
//w

below the highest ranks, Black professionals are underrepresented at the senior manager,
VP, and SVP levels (4%).
s:

As of the first quarter of 2021, 41 women will lead Fortune 500 companies., which is an
improvement from the 33 companies in 2019. However, fewer women hold senior vice
tp

president, vice president, director, and manager roles in 2021 than in 2019. This
45 reduction aligns with statistics showing women dropping out of the labor force due to the
ht

pandemic. And even when companies do have diversity programs in place, only about a quarter
of employees in diverse groups said they have personally benefited.
