Employee Resource Groups & Networks
Employee Resource Groups & Networks are internal structures designed to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within companies, often guided by a DEI Council.
These ERGs aim to meet employees' needs and align with business objectives but face challenges in effectiveness and in meeting employees' actual expectations, which can impact the sense of inclusion within the workplace.
To address these challenges, it's crucial for business leaders to align ERGs with both employee expectations and organizational DEI goals. Effective alignment can be achieved through clear communication, alignment with corporate DEI strategies, and organizational support, thereby enhancing the ERGs' effectiveness and employees' sense of inclusion.
