Bengaluru: All the seminars and training on adapting inclusively at the workplace don't suffice the fact that most employees disagree with the company leaders on equality in their organisations, an Accenture study has revealed.
Nearly all leaders in India believe their people feel included but one third of employees agree and while 2/3 feel they create empowering environments where people have a sense of belonging.
"A significant gap exists between the way leaders and employees view progress toward equality in their organizations", according to a new cross industry research from Accenture.
The report covered several industries across 28 countries including India has found that organizations are at an inflection point.
Today's workforce 88% of women and 77% of men in India believe it is critical to helping them thrive in the workplace as most leaders rank diversity and workplace culture low on their list of top organisational priorities.
"Everyone – both women and men – would advance faster, and global profits would increase by $3.7 trillion, including $1.35 trillion in the Asia Pacific region," said the study.
It also added how the annual retention rate in India would increase by 2 % for women as well.
