Diversity: Where and Where Not

It may seem obvious, but diversity is … well … diverse.

It is more and more common that we find tender requests contain questions around our Diversity and Inclusion as an organisation.

We welcome this, and as a very small (but fast growing) IT organisation we know that we want to buck the trend of the ‘pale, male, stale’ stereotype for our industry and build a community of richly diverse people whose differences bring a wealth of ideas and viewpoints to what we do and what we want to do in the future.

?We pride ourselves on our innovation.

Innovation comes from the willingness to be different and to do things differently; that requires us to look at things in new ways. We cannot innovate if we simply copy what other people are doing.

At Wyser we make a conscious effort to avoid recruiting “in our own mould”.

We have actively sought to bring in people with skills and experiences that will challenge us to think and act differently as individuals and as an organisation.

We are already working hard to bring in people who will enrich our understanding of the world and challenge us to be and do better.

We know that we can embrace difference and new perspectives. We look for people who think outside the box. It’s where we operate best.

Where we do not have diversity though, is in our values.

There we ensure that we are all aligned and that we recruit individuals that support those values and will live them.
