Businesses with a diverse workforce are more successful businesses.

To illustrate that point:

  • Diverse companies are more likely to financially outperform their peers (McKinsey’s Diversity Report)
  • Gender: 25% more likely to outperform peers financially
  • Ethnicity: 36% more likely to outperform peers financially
  • Diverse organisations are 70% more likely to capture new markets (Harvard Business Review)
  • Diverse companies are 45% more likely to report a growth in market share over the previous year

The current skills gap requires creativity and inclusivity and there remains a huge opportunity to bring underrepresented and hidden talent communities into the workforce to address the skills gap, including attracting women, ethnically diverse, LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent communities to STEM roles.

Gattaca is committed to supporting our clients in bridging the gap, widening talent pools and helping make organisations’ recruitment processes more inclusive.

Key dates in Gattaca’s ED&I calendar are our quarterly ED&I workshops. We invite organisations to spend the day thinking about inclusive recruitment, learning from experts and collaborating with peers to find real solutions to attract diverse talent into their organisations.

So what do these events involve?

  • External speakers on a variety of ED&I topics including a 'Fireside Chat', panel led Q&A forum, and client-led ED&I journey presentations
  • Sharing the challenges our clients and the industry is facing
  • Providing insights, ideas and case studies – to inspire positive action
  • Sharing resources to support organisations’ ED&I journey
