Introducing NCC Conversations: A safe space to talk

30 septiembre 2020

As part of our Inclusion and Diversity programme here at NCC Group, we introduced our NCC Conversations series to help us to drive dialogue around a number of important topics that our colleagues care about.

Our four core focus areas; Gender, Race and Ethnicity, LGBTQIA+ and Neurodiversity have newly formed, dedicated steering committees, responsible for providing advice, guidance and actions on how we can make NCC Group a more inclusive and diverse place to work, representative of the world we live in.

Each month over the next year, we’ll be taking a deeper look into these four areas, where colleagues will be invited to participate in a whole host of activities from content creation, to workshops, panel discussions and much more.

To kick things off, this September we have been exploring dyslexia as a sub category of neurodiversity.

Dyslexia is a genetic difference in an individual’s ability to learn and process information and can be shown through a person’s ability to read, write and speak.

Did you know around 10-15% of the population experience dyslexia? That's the equivalent of 192-289 of our colleague’s right here at NCC Group.

With this in mind, we invited our colleagues to join us in conversation, where we’ve been challenging taboos and taking a deep dive into what it means to be dyslexic.

Next month, we’re looking forward to taking a deeper dive into Race and Ethnicity, where we’ll be touching on power and prejudice, discrimination, micro-aggression, triggering and racist behavior.
