SHRM All Things Work Brian Reaves on the Transformational Power of Employee Resource Groups
Meaningful change at organizations is often hindered by employees’ natural inclination to keep doing things the way they’ve always done them. Now, a new three-year research initiative from Great Place to Work entitled The Great Transformation is measuring meaningfully transformative change at eleven organizations following from the launch of new inclusion, diversity and equity initiatives.
In this episode of All Things Work, guest host Mike Frost is joined by Brian Reaves, UKG’s Chief Belonging, Equity & Impact Officer. They discuss how The Great Transformation is helping UKG achieve improvements in areas such as productivity, agility and innovation. Employee resource groups (ERGs) also are playing an important role in UKG’s transformation initiative, and
recent study by Great Place to Work likewise finds ERGs are critical in creating a sense of belonging, safety and pride: Reaves describes the contributions ERGs have made at UKG and what it takes to keep them moving forward.
