In this episode, I am joined by a highly knowledgeable public health professor,
Dr Raymona Lawrence. She shares the importance of her model, in actionable steps that promotes diversity and inclusion in various settings. The ROAR framework she introduces, consists of four crucial elements: Recruitment, Onboarding, Activity, and Retention.
When it comes to recruitment, this refers to the importance of addressing unconscious bias, diversifying candidate pools, and avoiding hiring individuals that are like current employees.
What else did we discuss?
In terms of onboarding, she emphasises the need for diverse onboarding practices and fostering inclusion beyond the recruitment stage. This includes accommodating different perspectives and backgrounds.
