Jakarta, 12 August 2024 – In an ongoing effort to promote inclusive work environments, Radita Sonix, founder of IQ DEVPRO®, recently delivered a compelling lecture and training session titled “Fostering a Diversity and Inclusion Culture at the Workplace.” The event was organized by MojadiPro and tailored specifically for Sinarmas Land, a leading real estate developer in Indonesia.
The event was conducted in four sessions with a cumulative participation of 400 individuals. Radita Sonix was one of three expert trainers leading these sessions. The training was held online, allowing for a broader reach and ensuring that participants from various locations could benefit from the insights and strategies discussed. The training focused on the critical importance of cultivating a culture of diversity and inclusion within organizations, particularly in the real estate industry. With a well-structured agenda, the session provided participants with a deep understanding of the concepts, benefits, and strategies for implementing diversity and inclusion (D&I) initiatives effectively.
The lecture began with an exploration of the current landscape of diversity and inclusion in the real estate sector, highlighting how embracing these values can lead to increased innovation, improved financial performance, and enhanced company reputation. Radita Sonix emphasized that a diverse workforce is essential for understanding and meeting the needs of a varied customer base and for driving sustainable development.
Radita outlined several key strategies for fostering a culture of inclusion, including the importance of inclusive leadership, fair recruitment practices, and the development of policies that promote equity. He shared real-world case studies that demonstrated the successful implementation of D&I initiatives by leading companies, offering valuable lessons and best practices that participants could apply within their own organizations.
A significant portion of the training was dedicated to addressing common challenges in implementing diversity and inclusion, such as resistance to change and unconscious biases. Radita provided practical solutions to overcome these obstacles, ensuring that participants left with actionable insights and a clear path forward.
One of the key takeaways from the session was the emphasis on the measurable benefits of D&I, such as higher employee engagement, reduced turnover, and improved problem-solving capabilities within diverse teams. Radita highlighted that companies with diverse executive teams are significantly more likely to outperform their peers in profitability, making diversity and inclusion not just a social imperative but a strategic business priority.
Radita Sonix expressed his appreciation for the opportunity to collaborate with Mojadipro and Sinarmas Land, stating, “Fostering diversity and inclusion is not just about meeting quotas or checking boxes—it’s about creating a work environment where every individual feels valued and has the opportunity to contribute to their fullest potential. I am thrilled to see Sinarmas Land taking proactive steps in this direction, and I am confident that their commitment to these values will lead to long-term success.”
The session concluded with an interactive discussion, allowing participants to ask questions and engage in dialogue about the challenges and opportunities of implementing D&I practices in their respective roles. The comprehensive handouts provided during the training will serve as a valuable resource for participants as they work to integrate these practices into their daily operations.
