Migrant and ex-pat colleagues contribute to a huge proportion of the UK workforce. Some of these individuals have come to experience life in the UK, some to bring their speciality skills, some out of necessity. Whatever the reason, our migrant and ex-pat colleagues enrich our organisations bringing diversity and differing perspectives. This comes with great benefits, so we must do all that we can to make sure our migrant and ex-pat colleagues feel welcome and comfortable in their workplace environment.

How effective are your staff networks? Does your organisation have any? And have you considered just how beneficial they can be? What can you introduce if your organisation is too small for individual networks?

This session is about looking at the overall importance of staff networks and how to best utilise networks, increase engagement, create benefit for internal and external stakeholders and how to critically analyse your approach to ensure you’re getting the most value out of your staff networks.
