Opening Doors Forum: The Role of Hiring Managers

This is an online event.

Audience

Open to both members and non-members of Business in the Community (BITC). This event would be of interest to employers seeking to learn about the increasing role of hiring managers in inclusive recruitment.

Background

Inclusive recruitment is more than a moral imperative, it’s rapidly becoming a business imperative. Businesses that succeed will benefit from a larger, more diverse talent pool, increased innovation, and improved employee retention. Research from the Boston Consulting Group found that organisations with above-average diversity levels generate 19% points more revenue from innovation (BCG, 2018). Hiring managers play a crucial role in fostering this inclusivity by championing inclusive hiring practices and promoting a workplace culture where all employees can thrive.
