Being and Belonging at Work: Why it matters.
Finding Equity at Work
It’s no shock that equity is needed for workers to feel fulfilled. If you don’t feel like the environment around you is fair, why would you want to be a part of it? If your employees don’t see opportunities at your organization, you will eventually lose them.
It’s not just about having advancement opportunities. It’s also about the fairness in how they are treated. Are they respected? Are they valued? In the documentary, La’Shondra was told by her employee that her opinions as a teacher did not matter, because the focus was solely on the children. Of course being concerned about your customer or target audience is important, but if you lose sight of those that make your business run, you are certain to have turnover.
