Principles
- Diversity and Inclusion is good for business. This is not just a crusade to make yourself feel better or to tick a box that confirms you are doing the right thing. It is proven that a business that is diverse and inclusive is more productive, more creative and more profitable. Many studies suggest at least 20% more profitable. Diversity in staff leads to broader thinking, a diversity of attitude, different views and more creativity. It positively impacts the bottom line and therefore we need diversity and inclusivity to thrive.
- Attracting diverse talent to the mortgage market. We must improve the base from which we are inspiring people of all gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, ability or disability, and any other minority groups into the market. The mortgage industry is an interesting, varied and rewarding industry to work in, and we need to do more to broaden the reach into diverse communities, show them the opportunities available and provide a supportive route to the top.
- Being authentic and bringing your whole true self to work. Leaders need to create a work culture and framework that allows and encourages all employees to be themselves. We want everyone to respect themselves, respect each other and have a support framework in place that embraces diversity and difference. Employees of all levels should know what good looks like and what a supportive work environment should feel like.
- Trailblazers. Role models of all gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, ability or disability, and any other minority groups provide an important mechanism to inspire change. Trailblazers will educate and inform individuals or groups to provide a more rounded view of the challenges and opportunities of setting the right diversity and inclusivity agenda. They will be given the platform to be more visible and inspire more participants of all minority groups to get the recognition they deserve.
