Do your employees feel they belong?

Accepting diversity in the workplace is not enough.

Employees need to know they are valued and part of the team. They need to have that feeling of involvement and acceptance.

If you are leading a meeting, you have a lot of power.

Particularly in a high-power distance culture such as many places in the Asia Pacific region, you can communicate a lot with how you look at someone. You can look at someone in a way that tells them to be quiet, or you can look at someone with the look that kindly asks them to contribute.

Sometimes the best ideas come from the most diverse members of the team, and those who feel vulnerable are often most easily intimidated. There is power in your eyes - be careful how you use it.

Having open communication can solve most problems people with disabilities face at work.

But how do we make sure that these colleagues tell us how they really feel and think, and most of all how they want to be treated? After all, just like everyone else, people with disabilities have individual preferences too.

Through psychological safety, we can foster a work environment where everyone in a diverse team feels that they are included, heard, and valued. This will then lead them to share more about themselves and the support that they actually need to thrive at work.
