The ABCs of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

The focus on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in the insurance sector is gaining paceā€”not just linearly but exponentially. More and more people have become part of the conversation, yet many are still unsure how to contribute or where to start.

To be clear, I don’t have all the answers, but I am committed to approaching DEI with humility, listening and learning to become a better active ally. Reflecting on my own experience, I have only recently come to understand the importance of moving beyond allyship to active allyship. This is the theme for this year’s Dive In, a global movement launched in 2015, with a festival holding events in 32 countries to support the development of inclusive workplace cultures in the industry.
