  • Who’s Being Left Out of Inclusion? The Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid
    Dec 10 2024

    So much DEI work is focused on people at the top of an organisation.

    Too many people forget about people at the bottom.

    Key Topics Covered in This Episode:

    - How DEI is preoccupied with senior leaders

    - Why there’s an opportunity at the bottom of the pyramid

    - 3 groups who are often overlooked and why they matter

    Play the Episode for More

    Key Takeaways from This Episode:

    Most DEI work focuses on senior leadership.

    "It’s an open secret that DEI work is preoccupied with senior leaders."

    There’s an untapped opportunity in focusing on those at the bottom of the pyramid.

    "They’re the ones who often face the most barriers."

    Consider three overlooked groups: The Tokenised Few, The Ignored Many, and The Overlooked Marginalised.

    “Each of these groups represents high disengagement, increased turnover, and underutilised potential."
