Finding Balance: Developing Cohesive Environments When Faced with Adversity

In this episode, Samuel Kasumu and Wendy McPherson discuss the evolving role of diversity, equity, and inclusion (EDI) in organisations. They explore the need to adapt EDI practices to societal changes, balance diversity with cohesion, and emphasise leadership’s role in fostering inclusion. Through the case study of Dagenham Council, the episode highlights community engagement and the integration of EDI into organisational culture as essential for success. A must-listen for leaders aiming to drive belonging and social justice within their teams.


Key Takeaways from the Episode

  • Diversity evolves with each generation: EDI practices must adapt to remain effective and relevant.
  • It’s about people, not just policies: Diversity reflects the varied needs of individuals.
  • Cohesion is key: Without it, diversity can unintentionally alienate.
  • Empathy leads the way: Understanding others' perspectives is essential for impactful EDI practices.
  • Community engagement matters: Real change begins by connecting with the communities organisations serve.
  • Lived experience adds depth: Voices with firsthand experiences bring unmatched value to EDI strategies.
  • Integration is non-negotiable: EDI must be woven into organisational culture, not treated as a superficial trend.
