Journal
The company attracts, retains, and engages consumers in the entire Australian market in a supportive environment by building trust and providing quality and excellent products and services. Therefore, my personal and team goals revolve around understating and interacting with people of different cultural backgrounds. Work goals are essential in daily operations in the business. However, there is a need for personal and team goals that align with the work goals to give the workforce direction, focus, and motivation. Additionally, team and individual goals help the workforce stay on track and plan for the future.
Adept Owl Games Company is working towards achieving a diverse and inclusive workforce and creating and encouraging a work environment that is fair, equitable, and respectful of differences in personal characteristics. Therefore, the companys Key Performance Indicators are essential in evaluating and explaining the companys progress in achieving a diverse workforce and examining how the companys workforce perception and understanding of inclusivity and diversity are developing.
The organisational workforce tends to be resistant to change. As a Diversity and Inclusivity Specialist, I will engage the workforce through effective communication. This aims to listen to their ideas and perceptions on the issue of inclusivity and diversity and seek their feedback on various programmes and practices I intend to implement. Additionally, I possess strong interpersonal skills and organisational skills. These skills will come in handy in relating and interacting with the workforce and developing a work plan that will achieve the companys objective.
Due to the companys urgency in the matter, I prioritise five activities to achieve the companys work goals. These interdependent activities take a short time, making it easy to manage and wheel them into achieving set objectives. A work plan is a significant tool in achieving set goals. I developed a work plan that will be essential in assigning tasks to various Human Resource team members, managing the work flow, tracking the progress, and meeting our set deadline.
In all aspects of my work, my goal is to be a role model to others; by carrying myself in a way that actively supports the principle of togetherness and promotes inclusivity and diversity in the workplace. Inclusivity and diversity is a new department in Adept Owl Games Company; thus, the workload is expected to be a lot. Similarly, to create change, a lot of resistance is expected that might negatively impact my mental health and result in stress. I plan to create a flexible work schedule that encourages work-life balance and work with realistic goals and expectations to avoid mental stress.
