How do you feel about DEI going into 2026?

This year, we are challenging the "doom-and-gloom" narrative by reminding ourselves and others that inclusion is something to be positive and excited about, as well as a proven driver of performance.

In our latest episode, we break down four actionable ‘big ideas’ you can use to kick start your 2026:

  1. Communications-First Strategy: Pivoting from compliance-heavy jargon to positive, values-driven messaging that activates the "ambivalent middle."
  2. ERGs as High-Performance Teams: Shifting ERGs from informal social groups to structured, accountable units aligned with business goals.
  3. Meetings as Culture Drivers: Transforming daily "micro-moments" to improve inclusion while slashing low-value meeting time by up to 32%.
  4. AI as a Strategic Partner: Using AI as a "devil’s advocate" to challenge bias and stress-test People & Culture strategies.

Listen now for ideas on how to elevate your 2026 strategy.
