INCLUSION & DIVERSITY
THE TRIBE METHODOLOGY Speaking to Relocate Global after the Festival, Boughey explained that smaller employers are often in a position to really influence and deliver inclusion and great places to work in an impactful way. They can find it much easier to collate and analyse meaningful data and understand what it is saying. “That’s why I wanted my TRIBE methodology to be holistic, because pay rises alone are not going to address the underlying causes,” she added. “I am on a mission to influence people and businesses of all sizes by spreading the word that inclusion is accessible for everyone and we can now take it off the too-difficult-to-do pile.” During her keynote speech, Boughey brought her TRIBE
approach to life with examples from practice and case studies relevant to global assignees, HR and global mobility. For example, she looked at inclusion from the perspective of talent planning, talent management and employee engagement.
TRIBE is a cyclical approach, which focuses on: Take stock – establish the truth in relation to your current diversity and inclusion position Raise awareness – understand why inclusion and diversity is important to gain a competitive advantage Inspire and involve – recognise the value of an internal culture that inspires and involves everyone Build for the future – embrace inclusion and diversity to improve and sustain talent attraction and retention Embed – ensure that your organisation is infused and firmly embedded in your organisation’s culture.

CLOSING THE GAP
Teresa Boughey’s #1 bestselling book Closing the Gap – 5 steps to creating an Inclusive Culture provides corporate CEOs and HR directors with a clear framework and effective guidance to support those taking their first steps towards inclusivity and those already on their journey who may need additional guidance or ideas, by evaluating their progress to date and demonstrating how to embed inclusive practices into all future strategies. The foundation of Boughey’s book is her unique TRIBE Diversity & Inclusion methodology, which provides a comprehensive structure for any business to sustainably transform their culture and become the envy of their competitors.
Closing the Gap’s runaway Amazon chart success is surely a sign of our changing times and how inclusion is rocketing up the agenda as long-warned talent trends take hold. “It’s amazing that, as an aspiring author, I was outselling two titles written by my heroes, Simon Sinek and Patrick Lencioni,” said Boughey. “I do a lot of work around leadership development with executive boards and leaders, and theirs are some of the models I really use a lot. When I saw that my book had overtaken theirs, I was like ‘wow’, so I am absolutely thrilled about that.”
everyone having a personal role in making that accessible and happen for everyone,” said Boughey. “It’s also about encouraging people to challenge what is happening around them and champion the unique value of everyone in their team.” She added that it is important to recognise and make the
most of diversity, “When you have global assignees working together and in diverse teams, it’s about ensuring people understand the strengths and value they bring, the dynamic they create and the difference they make.” With inclusivity and diversity in the workplace quickly
rising up the agenda for business leaders and employees alike and with examples such as the gender pay gap and inadequate f lexible working making the headlines, Boughey explained, “Society is no longer accepting rhetoric and promises in the place of solid action to build an environment where employees are treated with respect and feel genuinely valued for their unique difference without the need to hide who they really are.” “We have to look to the future,” concludes Boughey. “This
broadly is about talent planning: how do we find talent, where do we get it from and how technology will help us. It’s about really getting your organisation set up for success and recognising that, not only do we have to think about our current talent, but out future talent, what they need and how our managers need to be set up to engage and retain people.”
