Engaging Institutional Memory for EDI Design; Looking Backward to Move Forward

Too often organizations attempt to create a DEI action plan without understanding what was inherited and what no longer serves the organizational mission. It’s rare that what came before was the best of what’s possible when it comes to the work of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion.

If we can acknowledge that fact, we are able to move forward with renewed values and objectives. Together we’ll explore how who we’ve been impacts who we are and where we want to go so that your organization’s EDI roadmap has a clear and aspirational true north.

Culturally Insensitive Language in the Workplace - D&I and Power of Words

Join Genesys Global DE&I Director and Professor, Tandalea Mercer for an examination of culturally insensitive language in the workplace, as well as a look back at how the power of words have shaped many of the developments of the past year. From the historical origins of the divisive language dating back to colonialism to a discussion about how we can move away from it, this talk will cover a lot of ground from how words can disrupt inclusion in the workplace to how they may even incite violence. You will also take away practical examples of how to choose intentionality around language as a force for empathy and positive communication, as well as hear a call to action and how Genesys’ core values tie into this.

A Beginner’s Guide: Intersectionality to Fight Injustice at the Workplace

Have you heard of intersectionality and the helpful framework it provides for all DEI practitioners? But you’re not exactly sure about it in-depth? Let’s take a deep dive in this highly informative workshop! Intersectionality is a term coined in the US, by leading critical race theory scholar Kimberlé Crenshaw. It describes the study of overlapping identities and the interaction of different power structures, such as race, class and gender. Intersectionality helps us to analyze how systemic, institutional and historical oppression affects groups differently and enriches the understanding of how norms are constructed.

How to Make Salaries and Bonuses an Inclusion Factor for all Corporate Employees and Top Management?

The key of the problem lies in the system of “salary+annual bonus” most commonly used in nowadays corporate world, which:


  • Does not take into account an employee performance and results month by month;

  • Does not create stimulus for most employees to go an extra mile when it is needed, with no clear and transparent formula to link those extra efforts with the financial compensation

  • Does not create an inclusive team spirit between the top management and the rest of the employees
