This week I am joined by:
ANNETTE MASON – HEAD OF TALENT AND DIVERSITY AT DWR CYMRU WELSH WATER – the not-for-profit utilities provider.
We talk about the EDI forum she has established at Welsh Water and the employee network groups they’ve subsequently set up with the input and direction of their Inclusivity Ambassadors.
We discuss the engagement initiatives and activities they are running such as reverse mentoring, a national Inclusion Week of events and their ‘Be Yourself’ campaign.
And of course we look at the way they gain and share best practice from and with other organisations and hear Annette’s top tips for other employers starting their journeys to improve Diversity & Inclusion.
Here's the link to the Youtube video mentioned in the podcast:
It was great to catch-up with Annette on a topic about which she is clearly genuinely passionate – and I hope you enjoy listening to the conversation too.
