Advancing the DE&I Journey

SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals
We are committed to exploring concepts that further the DE&I conversation in Asia, whether that be by returning to the foundations and re-examining the fundamentals or leading the charge when it comes to breaking taboos and tackling new and emerging themes across all aspects of responsible business and employee wellbeing

Campaign Objectives

  • Reiterate the fundamentals of DE&I and help companies apply them to their policies and practices 
  • Leverage 20 years of Asia-led insights and research to interpret global practices and policies 
  • Strike a balance between global conversations and top down policies and help Asia based organisations implement the most appropriate interventions for their teams and people in the region
  • Lead the charge when it comes to new and emerging themes in DE&I

Advancing the DE&I Journey Consulting & Training

  • Building the DE&I Business Case 
  • Launching an ERG in Asia

Community Business is now offering 5 training packages that encompass a variety of topics to foster positive changes within the workplace.

DE&I (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) training, when done right, will translate into creating a workplace culture where employees experience psychological safety and feel a sense of belonging. That is, they feel accepted—and celebrated—for who they are.

Our Commitment

Community Business was founded on the belief that businesses have the power to drive social change, creating a ripple of understanding and acceptance throughout the wider communities that they operate by standing tall as a shining example of inclusion, celebrating differences among their people.  

We return to the basic principles and definitions of diversity, equity and inclusion again and again in our work, whether it be introducing organisations at the beginning of their journey to concepts and language to help them establish the foundations of inclusive practices, or working with more advanced companies to further their efforts and solidify sustainable change. We are equally committed to breaking boundaries and leading the charge when it comes to new and emerging themes in DE&I and wellbeing. We are proud of our reputation as a trailblazer, tackling taboo topics in the Asia region and we are committed to helping our partners and clients explore and expand into these areas, leaning into and working through the challenges that they present.
