So you made it, you made it to the end of the diversity, inclusion and belonging certification here at gitlab, you've heard from several team members you've just heard from liam in module 3 about how we all contribute and he's spoken about different groups, and you may say to yourself what else could you possibly need to know about diversity, inclusion belonging, I'm going to give you a few high-level things to consider. Additionally, you want to think about diversity of thought.

A

How do you get that you might ask you have to have diversity of thought, and that would you get that by creating teams that are diverse, that would be in recruiting hiring with intentionality, as marcus spoke of earlier, that representation needs to look different than the current population that you have so who you bring in the door who you're promoting to new opportunities and mentoring, intentionally diverse interview panels, diverse teams bring about a lot of innovativeness, and you should think about what you can do to create that in your space, additional things to consider would be to create goals, create goals that are reasonable and attainable and figure out.

A

How do you get there? Get the buy-in from leadership, as we do here at get lab. Engaging with leadership is a true connection to developing team members. You want to be able to also listen.

A

You want to think about the training you've done and continue to leverage that, when you see bias on your teams or in within your groups, confront them head-on and realize that we all have biases and it's okay to disagree, but just to understand that create a sense of belonging, really reach out and dig deep into the intentionality, whether those be reverse amas. That lorna spoke of earlier that's happening within themselves group and creating some of those same intentional practices.

A

Leveraging the voices of team member resource groups create an environment where team members truly can see themselves at the company before they get there, and when you get there do all you can to retain them and creating efforts and listening to what is important to the team member talent brand is important. We do a lot of partnering with talent brand in an effort to make sure social media is who we say. We are also when you think about what happens in the process and the experience of talent brand.

A

Before again, the team member gets to get lab awards and recognition that not only goes for the company, but that goes for the team members himself and recognizing the efforts of a job well done, creating training that everyone can leverage and they feel enabled creating a coms plan with your coms team, we partner heavily with our coms team to make sure that we are saying what we say we are and we're not misrepresenting anything as it relates to diversity, inclusion and belonging and being transparent, and all that we do.
