Research Identifies Key Elements to Build a Culture of Belonging BOSTON, March 21, 2024 -- Leading NOW, the award-winning leadership authority and advisor to organizations seeking to create more equitable cultures, today released the latest research from its global think tank, the Center for Diversity & Inclusion (CDI) on The Importance of Belonging in the Workplace™. Research shows that underrepresented populations have a significantly lower feeling of belonging @ work than their counterparts, resulting in higher and more rapid turnover––a serious issue for organizations. However, what that research does not do is tell organizations what to do about it. Until now.

As we kick off Pride month, we encourage our clients, partners, colleagues and associates to proudly let your LGBTQIA+ team members lead discussions in your organizations and incorporate their ideas into your plans whenever possible.
