It is well known that employees gravitate towards companies with similar values as themselves, a place where they can connect and feel like they belong. As more and more employment options become available, people will chose companies that understand the importance of inclusion and offer it in the workplace. Offering inclusion and belonging to your team sets you up as a great company to work for; attracts the right people to your team; ensures their emotional well-being; encourages engagement and ultimately shows results in the company’s performance.
LEO, Drogheda & District Chamber & M1 Skillnet are pleased to invite you to our breakfast event to highlight and promote diversity and inclusion as good for business. Please join us and our key note speakers as they share their insights and experience of how inclusion is key to nurturing talent and enhancing good business.
