PODCAST: Vulnerability & The Workplace

In this episode of the Transform Talent Podcast, ManpowerGroup UK’s Talent Director Georgina Huntley is joined by Trishna Naik, Global DE&I Manager at Jaguar Land Rover. They explore practical steps for building a culture of diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) in the workplace. Trishna shares some valuable insights on fostering a culture of inclusivity and belonging.

Listen to this podcast episode as we explore the importance of leaders:

  • Embracing vulnerability by demonstrating authenticity and openness to create an environment where employees feel safe to do the same
  • Being open to feedback and actively seeking input from their teams and being willing to listen
  • Cultivating curiosity to promote a culture of growth and understanding.

Trishna emphasises that the ultimate goal is for workplaces to no longer make DEI roles a necessity but instead ensure that inclusivity is ingrained in the company’s culture. In this ideal scenario, employees feel empowered to be their authentic selves, leading to increased satisfaction and productivity.

Overall, Trishna’s insights are a reminder that building a culture of DEIB isn’t a one-time effort but a continuous journey of self-discovery and growth. Leaders must be committed to fostering inclusivity and belonging in the workplace so that it becomes second nature. Tune in to discover more!
