Transforming the Workplace: Inclusivity ...

THE HR GAZETTE
About this episode

Curious how inclusivity can reshape your workplace? Join us for an insightful conversation with Lila Nazef, the accomplished Vice President of Sales and Marketing North America at Neocase.

With nearly two decades of expertise in HR tech, Lila offers a wealth of knowledge on transforming HR service delivery into a more inclusive experience for employees.

Tune in and discover how Neocase demystifies complex HR jargon, ensuring that everyone, regardless of their level of tech-savviness, can easily access crucial resources.

As social movements continue to shape our understanding of inclusivity, Bill Banham and Lila examine how tools like Neocase are instrumental in crafting environments where inclusivity and efficiency go hand in hand.

We also highlight the importance of designing mobile applications that meet advanced accessibility standards, ensuring that users can navigate HR processes seamlessly. From AI integration to real-world feedback, this episode is packed with insights on how technology is revolutionizing the employee experience, making it as pivotal now as it was during the height of the COVID era.

Questions For Lila Include:

  • Managing inclusivity is a key priority for HR decision-makers; can you outline the characteristics of this challenge?
  • You mentioned that there’s a balancing act between inclusivity and efficiency. In times of conflict should efficiency always win out?
  • SHRM last year removed the E from DEI and instead now focuses more on inclusivity and civility. What does civility in the workplace mean to you and is SHRM right to place an emphasis on it?  
  • What are the recent innovations introduced by Neocase to promote inclusivity?
  • How do you measure the effectiveness of your solutions?
