The close of 2024 marks a year of significant change and challenge for many in the DEI space.

Despite hurdles like fatigue, backlash, and evolving definitions, DEI remains central to meaningful workplace transformation.

What skills are most valuable for inclusive leaders?

We’ve been asking…

…and we’re excited to share a sneak peek at what we’re hearing from leaders so far.

For nearly 40 years, Ibis has partnered with organizations around the world, empowering teams with tools and strategies to build healthy, inclusive cultures that stand the test of time.

Finding the right words is never easy.

Especially when it comes to leadership and culture.

And more specifically, when it comes to whatever it is we mean when we say, ‘diversity and inclusion’.

We’re fully steeped in election season here in the United States. This is a time when voices matter more than ever – and so does how we use them.

Everyone needs a break now and then, but in DEI work, those breaks carry an outsize impact.

Among July’s highlights is the marking of the 34th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, which was signed into law in the U.S. on June 26, 1990.

Please join us in wishing “Happy Pride” to all who promote love and acceptance, acknowledge the diversity of identities within the LGBTQ+ community and advocate for equal rights.

“Are companies still working on DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion)?” people ask. “I hear so much about it not being allowed in some states. I mean…is it even still a thing?”

At Ibis, we're all about collaboration.

Not only is it a goal of successful Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) work, but it's the way we do business. We meet our clients where they are.

Let’s be real. Open, honest, and productive conversations about gender in the workplace are never easy to have, during Women’s History Month – or any time of year.

In observance of Black History Month, I find myself reflecting on the trajectory of DEI in recent years.
