From Insight to Action: The Power of Inclusive Communities | FinTech's DEI Discussions with Nadia Edwards-Dashti

Nadia Edwards-Dashti, CCO

In the latest episode of FinTech's DEI Discussions, host Nadia leverages her 19 years in recruitment to spotlight the power of inclusive practices in the workplace. 

She shares how engaging with thousands of female and non-binary candidates has revealed the importance of diversity in sparking innovation and breaking away from the norm of following the top earner's opinion. 

Nadia stresses that despite the challenges faced in 2023, prioritising a culture of psychological safety, active listening, and equitable opportunities is key to business success. 

She argues that such an approach not only boosts employee engagement and productivity but also equips businesses to adeptly handle market complexities with innovation and inclusivity at the forefront.
