📚 A Human Library of Strength and Inclusion 📚 Our team hosted a meaningful Human Library event in Schroders offices, featuring some of our inspiring WISE 匯菁 customers as "human books." Partnering with HandsOn Hong Kong, we co-created a space for impactful conversations about inclusion, resilience, and the value of embracing diversity. A huge thank you to Schroders employees, the WISE human books, and the HandsOn team for making this event a success. Key takeaways: 💡 The resilience of people navigating their unique journeys is extraordinary. 💡 Disability inclusion isn’t just the right thing to do—it makes business sense. 💡 Focusing on strengths unlocks untapped potential. 💡 Early, accessible diagnosis for neurodiverse individuals is crucial for creating inclusive workplaces. Together, let’s continue championing inclusion where it matters most: in the workplace. #disabilityinclusion #equalopportunities #recruitment #disabilityinclusion #equalopportunities #recruitment Christy Ting Jacky Wan Loïc André (安泊海) Jonathan Mok (He/Him), PGDE, MHKIoD and CMgr Michael C H Wong Andrea Lien Masaki NG Lisa Lam Matthew C.

🌟Empowerment through Inclusion: Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace🌟 I’m excited to share that our online seminar held last Thursday was a great success! We had a fantastic turnout with more than 40 students with SEN joining us, and we were honored to host our speakers Rachael Orleans Phyllis Pang Mathew Gollop from JPMorgan, HSBC, and Connected Group. Key topics that we have covered: 💡What is DE&I and why is it essential for business success? 💡Career opportunities in D&I 💡Understanding financial inclusion 💡The impact of inclusion on organizational culture The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with an average rating of 4.7! All in all, while diversity is a natural reality, achieving equity and cultivating inclusion requires deliberate choices and actions. When effectively implemented, these elements foster a sense of belonging, allowing individuals to feel accepted and valued in their communities and workplaces. A huge thank you to our speakers and everyone who participated. Together, we can continue to foster a culture of inclusion that benefits everyone!
