Did you know... • Companies with diverse management teams have 19% higher revenue. • Inclusive companies are 1.7 times more likely to be innovation leaders. • Diverse teams outperform individual decision-makers up to 87% of the time. • 67% of job seekers consider a diverse workforce necessary. • Companies with a diverse workforce outperform competitors by 35%. I am so proud to work for Mondelēz International! Mondelez International has demonstrated a strong commitment to racial and ethnic diversity within its workforce through various initiatives and actions: Racial Equity Audit: In 2022, Mondelez International voluntarily commissioned a third-party racial equity audit by WilmerHale to assess its progress in promoting equity within the company. The audit highlighted several positive outcomes, including responsible marketing policies, enhanced processes for vetting political contributions, increased spending with minority- and women-owned businesses, and efforts to recruit and develop diverse talent. Representation in the Workforce: Mondelez International's workforce diversity in 2021 reflected a mix of ethnicities, with White employees at 61.4%, Hispanic or Latino at 17.8%, Black or African American at 14.3%, Asian at 3.8%, and others at 2.7%. The company aims to increase the percentage of women in leadership roles and double the percentage of Black representation in management by specific targets set for 2024. Diversity and Inclusion Initiatives: The company's Chief Global Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer, Robert Perkins, emphasizes Mondelez International's commitment to advancing racial equity and inclusion among its colleagues, culture, and communities. The company has implemented various programs to promote inclusivity, such as leader inclusivity training, investments in organizations like Boys & Girls Clubs of America and the Thurgood Marshall College Fund, diverse talent placement programs, mentorship initiatives, and inclusivity training for senior people managers. DE&I Governance: Mondelez International takes its commitment to advancing racial equality seriously by engaging in numerous programs with robust oversight systems at both management and board levels to address racial justice considerations across its operations. Diversity isn't just a buzzword at Mondelez International – it's a driving force behind our success. From racial equity audits to inclusive leadership training, we're committed to fostering a workplace where every voice is heard and valued. Proud to be part of a company that understands the power of diversity in driving innovation and growth. #DiversityandInclusion #InclusiveLeadership #RacialEquity #MondelezInternational"

🏳️🌈Here's one thing people don't understand when we talk about diversity, equity and inclusion: The cause of one group is never a stand alone thing, but rather a fight for everyone. And here's why: "people" can hate one minority group and discriminate against it, and everyone else might think it's not their fight and therefore not care - but history teaches us that it never ends there. It always spreads to other groups, and in the end everyone suffer because they end up getting discriminated against if they are a bit different than the norm. The good news is that it's in our hands. We can: ❤️Truly accept everyone as they are 🧡Respect people's names 💛Accept cultural differences 💚Show interest in other people's cultures 💙Show empathy to other people's needs 💜Include everyone in our parties, projects, processes and policies That's the way to create a better future for everyone 💖 In the picture: Pride Month celebration opening at HelloFresh with Drag Queen Bingo 💃 I'm so proud to work for an inclusive company 🙌 #pridemonth #dei #LITrendingTopics

Came across this article by coincidence after having an interesting discussion with colleagues about DEI. It explores the evolving landscape of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives in American companies, which is important as this is often a bellwether of change globally. Some key points: ⚫ DEI is facing legal and political challenges: Companies are re-evaluating their DEI programs due to lawsuits and political backlash. ⚫ Focus is shifting towards inclusion: Companies are emphasizing inclusion over pure diversity metrics. ⚫ Terminology is changing: Some companies are moving away from the term "DEI" altogether. Does this resonate with my network in Japan? #dei #diversity #equity #inclusion

Last month, our Founder & CVO, Dr. Joy Ntetha was at Mondelēz International to speak about how unconscious bias affects the workplace. Moderated by Amaris Rennie , the panel included Senior People Director, Cebile Xulu, Amelia Vorster , Customer Services & Logisitics Director, and Funlola Pearce , Financial Lead Director who unpacked how unconscious bias, microaggressions, inclusion, culture, and business is ultimately interrelated. Dr. Joy begins her address by saying, “Firstly, it's important to note that unconscious bias is a human condition. The unconscious bias that plagues our families between siblings, police departments, the law, politics etc …is the same unconscious bias that plagues business in the form of exclusion.” We are proud to be a part of the bold moves Mondelez is making in driving conversations that matter, and celebrate the 300+ staff across AMEA who joined in and contributed to the success of this global series across the business. This was a proud moment to represent Afrika to share some perspective on how #ubuntu can be a useful lens for diversity and inclusion in Afrika, the importance of having #hardconversations, #reducingignorance #hairpolitics , #language #jollofrice #consciousbias and many other topics that are usually below the waterline but affect up to 80% of our behaviour. Stephen Frost says, “If you’re not consciously including, you are unconsciously excluding” , and we believe him. How are you consciously leading your business inclusively? #edi #diversityandinclusion #loweringthewaterline #inclusiveleaders #conversationsthatmatter Nthabiseng Masike

🔵 Breaking News: KFC's Bold Commitment to Inclusion 🔵 KFC has just unveiled an inspiring plan for the future, and it's a game-changer for disadvantaged young people. By 2030, they're aiming for a third of all new employees to be young individuals who've faced barriers to employment. 🍗💼 Partnering with UK Youth, KFC is recruiting directly from the Hatch program, supporting those aged 16 to 24 who've struggled to land their first job due to various challenges. 🤝🌟 But this initiative isn't just about numbers; it's about breaking cycles of inequality. The Hatch program provides one-to-one training, support, and work experience, ensuring these young talents get the opportunity they deserve. And guess what? Each participant gets an interview with KFC on graduation. 🎓🍟 Now, here's the link: We're all about inclusion at Young Epilepsy. Our mission resonates deeply with KFC's commitment to giving everyone a fair shot. 💪 Epilepsy is still misunderstood and causing only 1/3rd of people with the condition to be in work. Heads of CSR and ESG, this is a conversation we can't afford to miss. Let's connect, exchange ideas, and explore how we can create more opportunities for the next generation. 🤝🗨️ Together, we can make a significant impact.
