How do leaders fuel allyship and create workplaces where employees from underrepresented groups can thrive? How can allyship and curiosity help combat inclusion fatigue?
Behind any type of diversity fatigue lies a disconnect. The objective of organizational diversity is often communicated as meeting a specific goal, target, or number. While that is true and representation matters, humanity, empathy, and curiosity, tend to be an added “lesson” as opposed to something that is integrated. We see fatigue when companies do not invest in the skillsets of vulnerability and connection that are required to understand the intrinsic benefit of increasing diversity. Without the skill of connecting across difference, something that the majority of our population has never been taught, people can hide behind silence, resistance, and frustration in deep misunderstanding.
Allyship helps to combat this fatigue but it requires work and when supercharged with curiosity, its outcomes can be powerful. Recent Catalyst research, Allyship and Curiosity Drive Inclusion for People of Colour at Work, shows that curiosity complements allyship to boost inclusion.
