I think the critical question is, does everybody feel like they belong? Are these DE&I initiatives leading to true benefits? Are we giving everyone a seat at the table? Are we listening to them? Are we really bringing out diversity of thought? Nadia is joined by Gemma Dunn, Director of Growth at Missive Ltd, on this episode of FinTech’s DEI Discussions Podcast. The pair discuss the importance of fostering a sense of belonging in the fintech industry. Gemma emphasises the need for authentic and continuous DE&I efforts, steering clear of lip service. Gemma shares successful examples of global fintech companies advocating for diversity year-round and encourages safe spaces for open conversations. She highlights the role of marketing in promoting genuine DE&I initiatives and suggests initiatives like "Seat at the Table" to foster dialogue within workplaces.
