D&I MOMENTS

Fostering an inclusive culture requires time, effort, and commitment to the practices of inclusion. At IMechE we strive to create a culture where diverse contributors have equal impact. 

In a meeting, leaders should focus on three key areas. First, create psychological safety before the meeting even begins: send the agenda out ahead of time, welcome people by name as they enter the room, and make sure the seating accommodates everyone (if this is a physical meeting). During the meeting itself, manage conduct. When strong personalities over-reach, tamp down offenders, and actively bring all voices into the conversation. 

Finally, to show our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion we created this library of Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) Moments that can be introduced at the start of your meeting. This will help raise awareness and educate our IMechE community on Diversity and Inclusion matters.
