This year’s theme, ‘Impact Matters’, calls on all of us - from leaders, to teams and individuals - to reflect on how we can make a tangible, lasting difference in creating inclusive workplaces. It isn't just about celebrating inclusion but about understanding, identifying, and measuring the impact we have on marginalised groups - and committing to actions that create genuine, sustainable change.

It's National Inclusion Week! The theme for this year’s National Inclusion Week is Impact Matters. The theme centres around taking actions that make a genuine and sustainable impact that matters. As the saying goes, each of us holds the potential to make a profound and positive impact via our actions and the choices we make every day. The choices to be inclusive, equitable, thoughtful and considerate in everything we do as individuals has an impact – so let’s make it a positive one! #NationalInclusionWeek #DiversityEquityInclusion #ImpactMatters

This year's National Inclusion Week is one of self-reflection at Monties. Inclusive Employers selected a great theme for this year: Impact Matters. As our post below highlights, we each have the power to make an impact. I can name a multitude of "big" and "small" decisions made by leaders around me over the years that have had a huge impact on me - both positively and negatively. It's often the small everyday decisions leaders, and others, make without thinking that can have the most impact. For example: > which junior colleagues that leaders choose to socialise with - are you being inclusive? > who gets to work with you on that high profile project - is that fair? > are you giving team members airtime with clients (in meetings and on calls) - do you advocate for, and sponsor, colleagues? Monties may be quiet on socials this week but there's lots going on in the background 👌🏽 Stay tuned and keep your eyes peeled to hear more about what we've been up to! 🙌🏽

Why Inclusion Matters to Me This year the theme for National Inclusion Week is “Impact Matters”. It’s a powerful reminder that each of us holds the potential to make a profound and positive impact. By understanding, identifying, and measuring our impact, we can take actions that lead to genuine, change. Inclusion is a fundamental value that shapes the world I want my daughter to grow up in. As a parent, I dream of a future where she is accepted for who she is, without judgment, and where acceptance is the norm. I believe that by championing inclusion, we can build a world where my daughter—and everyone else’s children—can grow up feeling empowered, supported, and free to be themselves. Let’s commit to making acceptance the first step in all our interactions, ensuring a brighter, more inclusive future for the next generation. #Inclusion #Diversity #Acceptance #ImpactMatters #FutureGenerations #NIW2024
