Inclusive Growth Show Toby Mildon

Discover how to reshape the workplace into an environment that thrives on diversity and inclusivity. My conversation with Natalie Pearce, co-founder of The Future Kind, unveils the transformative impact of integrating user experience design principles with diversity and inclusion strategies. As we journey from our experiences at the BBC to our current roles, we reveal how empathetic, human-centred design can form the bedrock of a culture that not only welcomes but also celebrates varied perspectives. Natalie brings a wealth of knowledge from her background in strategy and service design, and together, we dissect the art of creating operating systems that align with a company's cultural vision, turning strategy into reality.

What's the secret to building kinder, fairer, and more efficiently designed companies? Natalie and I explore the magic that happens when designers join forces with HR professionals, merging the worlds of creativity and compliance to forge experiences that resonate with employees. Learn how this powerful collaboration can lead to a workplace where everyone feels valued and heard, and where the very design of everyday interactions can contribute to employee retention and satisfaction. This episode promises a wealth of stories, insights, and practical advice for anyone looking to craft a workplace culture that is not only inclusive but also inspires growth and innovation.
