In a competitive tech talent market, having an inclusive, caring culture can be a key differentiator. As Kelly Metcalf FCIPD , Head of People Experience at 富士通 , explained on a recent HR Leaders podcast, the organization focuses on diversity, equity and inclusion as an integral part of the employee experience.
One of their four priority areas is helping people bring their whole, authentic selves to work. As Kelly said, "We want you to show up and be confident to bring your true self to work." They are also driving inclusive hiring practices through training hiring managers to minimize bias.
"We're being really creative about where we look for talent, making sure that we've got a great offering so that we are more attractive than some of our competitors."
To promote inclusive career development, Fujitsu has sponsored programs to advance ethnic minority employees into more senior roles. And they aim to eliminate the gender pay gap completely by 2030.
Kelly also discussed how Fujitsu empowers teams to determine the work arrangements that fit them best. While remote work enables flexibility, they are intentional about bringing people together to facilitate connections and maintain culture.
For HR leaders looking to evolve their organizations, Kelly advised, "I would say time is super precious... Use your time to really focus on having a positive impact on people." This sense of purpose is what drives employee experience.
