Accelerating diversity & inclusivity

How do you improve diversity and inclusivity within an organization in a sensitive but effective way? Our Tinytask program broke down barriers and started conversations.

What was the challenge?

Based on an internal survey, the Henkel R&D Diversity & Inclusion team had identified a number of areas for improvement in terms of diversity and inclusivity within the organization. But how do you tackle such a sensitive subject?

What did we do?

We have translated these areas of opportunity into a tailor-made Tinytask program of 6 days.

Each R&D team member received a colorful and inspirational card which gave them a small, fun, but challenging task to do every day – either alone or with a colleague. We also stimulated participants to exchange their favorite tasks with colleagues by handing out different versions. The tasks covered 4 topics: Celebrate & Reward, Open-up & Respect, Wellbeing and Mindset. All topics helped to promote teamwork, creativity and personal well-being, as well as stimulate internal discussion.

What was the impact for the client?

In total 600 Tinytask cards were handed out to R&D employees across the world. The Tinytask helped to promote diversity and inclusion in a simple and fun way.

It brings a smile on many faces and interesting conversations.
