Inclusion means all of us
It is up to each of us to challenge our beliefs, educate ourselves and change our behavior to build a more inclusive workplace together.
​
Diversity and inclusion. More than two words, they are the principles that guide who we are and how we work. But diversity doesn’t guarantee inclusion; it takes action.
Without inclusion there is no us, only they, them. We need more than a diverse workforce; we need a workplace that invites and includes every voice in the conversation. At Vlanc FinancX, inclusion means all of us.
Why inclusion matters
Even when companies are more diverse, many appear as yet unable to cultivate inclusive work environments in an effective and consistent way, thus missing out on the benefits of diversity.

Where is the disconnect?
Diversity does not guarantee inclusion. Companies need to make a concerted effort to ensure equality, fairness and openness to reap the full benefits of diversity.
Inclusion lite bites
Hypervisibility
The feeling of being overly visible because of an individual’s race or ethnicity, to the point of overshadowing their unique skills and personality. Mainly experienced by members of marginalized communities in the workplace.
Impact
Extreme focus on skin colour in the workplace can detract from due recognition, reward, and cultivation of employees’ distinct talents. It can also be detrimental to the mental health of individuals who experience this type of attention.
