(Old Post 96).Inclusion Diversity Equity

 

I have participated in two competition on IDE for an Office event 

 

One is the story writing and other one is the tagline for IDE

 

Tagline chosen is –“Get Ethics with our Ethnics !!!”

 

Story is as below

 

I joined the firm in 2021 where Covid 19 was at its peak and most of us were working remotely.

To encourage the team to speak up, my manager use to keep daily team meetings.

When Each one of us  feel safe to express ideas, we as a team perform better.

Gradually , team was encouraged to be present in office and meet face to face.

I happen to meet people from diverse cultural background . Diversity is the new normal

 

Its is the art of thinking Independently together & Treating each other with kindness and compassion

I learnt I am more creative in diverse environment. I learnt a new language taking the opportunity that our firm had offered in form of Arabic classes.

It’s the empathy and the kindness that wins heart. Respecting and accepting each other  is the essence of being Human .

 

Lessons I learnt throughout my journey so far

1.           Addressing inequality in constructive way leads to balanced and inclusive work environment

2.           I need to constantly improve my knowledge and be able to contribute ideas on further improvements

3.           Micro actions result in macro changes

4.           To be proud of my uniqueness and be able to connect dots in different way.
