The importance of openly discussing diversity , equity and inclusion cannot be overemphasised Some societal and workplace elements still have taboos and misconceptions associated with race , gender , and mental health . This observation is why DK Bartley feels it is critical to have open discussions about such issues and to develop cuttingedge initiatives in support of DE & I . These discussions can help employees " share a best practice , learn a best practice , or just get more tuned in to our culture ," added DK Bartley .
In such a technologically advanced and modern world , DE & I should be at the top of any leader ’ s list when making decisions . This kind of prioritisation should not just be the case when it comes to human resources or employment , but also in regards to one ' s tone of voice or when considering a company ' s values and overall culture . Inclusivity is about more than just hiring people from different backgrounds . It ’ s also about making sure all people feel welcome and have opportunities to advance their careers while being true to their identities .
Moody ' s leadership has been vocal about its commitment to diversity , equity and inclusion . DK Bartley emphasised , " Our executive leadership is serious about making DE & I an integral part of everything
