Recruiting for Racial Diversity

WHAT'S INCLUDED

  • Free 60min online clinic
  • Advice & guidance
  • Q&A session
  • Opportunity to ask questions in advance to ensure tailored support

Why is this so important?

A fair, equitable approach to diversity and inclusion is the right path, morally and ethically, and one that will benefit the charity sector and everyone it supports. There is also a strong business case for racial diversity: organisations with higher-than-average diversity have 19% higher innovation revenue than their competitors. Full Black, Asian and ethnic minority representation could be worth £24 billion annually to the UK economy. 75% of the workforce by 2025 will be made up of millennials who want to work for innovative and diverse organisations.

Who is it for? 

  •  Anyone who works for a charity and feels they could benefit from advice and guidance on how to improve and strengthen inclusion in recruitment practice.
  •  Anyone looking for top tips on how to reach more racially diverse talent pools.
  •  Particularly good for hiring managers, HR departments, small/medium sized charities on a budget, CEOs and trustees. You will also learn how to put the ideas presented to you into action and build your own personal brand through content marketing.
