Overview

NASSCOM Diversity &Inclusion is back with boom in 2019.

In 2018, under the aegis of NASSCOM D&I, we embarked on to the journey of Redefining D&I, we had our first series held in Hyderabad. With this context, the series II is scheduled in Mumbai for half day to take forward discussions.

Diversity of various hues are a given. Various studies have shown that diversity fosters innovation. But would it really help in innovation if the mix doesn't work? Making the mix work is key to being a game changer and that is defined by the culture of an organisation. Great cultures are intentional - it would be the point of focus in the values, vision, mission and importantly strategy of the organisation that drives actions and behaviours across levels.

While the futuristic leaders look at creating a great culture that is inclusive, agile and fosters innovation, it is important to watch the paradigm shift in political, social, economic and technological spheres. These factors combined with expectations of diverse groups and customers is pushing organisations to revisit their approach and derive strategies that unleash the potential of their employees who are diverse in their thought process, skills, needs and motivation factors.

A truly inclusive leader will weave these together and shape the future of the business by fostering relationships and ability to work across differences.

Considering this backdrop, NASSCOM is looking at ways to celebrate diversity, understand the inclusive leadership nuances, questioning status quo of ways of thinking. In half day discussions, Diversity & Inclusion Conference in January, the focus would be

  • Understand what are some of emerging opportunities/challenges from a D&I standpoint in todays’ ever changing world
  • Who builds the inclusive culture – who is an inclusive leader, what are the characteristics of these leaders
  • What is affirmative action for the LGBT+IQ community?
