IMRO is thrilled to announce its shortlisting in the Excellence in Workplace Diversity, Culture, and Inclusion category at the Workplace Excellence Awards. This recognition celebrates IMRO’s unwavering commitment to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and supportive work environment.
These awards honor professionals and businesses dedicated to continual workplace improvement. They acknowledge their commitment and effort while providing a valuable opportunity for organisations to align themselves with top-tier business standards.
IMRO is committed to building and sustaining a diverse and inclusive work environment. Our diverse perspectives are enriched by many dimensions, including race, ethnicity, gender, age, physical and mental ability, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, culture, language, education, and professional and life experience. Our differences make us a better team – we make better decisions, drive innovation, and deliver better business results.
Lisa Ni Chosidealbha, Director of Media Licensing and Public Affairs at IMRO, emphasises this, stating:
“Diversity, equality and inclusivity are integral to IMRO’s day to day decisions, operations and activities. With a strong understanding of the impact of DEI on the social, political, and economic developments in the commercial and creative worlds we operate in, every effort is made to ensure that the same ideals are reflected in our thought processes and decision-making. Ensuring that all staff members have access to team-building experiences, workshops, and information has enabled IMRO to create a more inclusive culture and develop a greater understanding among those who work with us. More recently a focus on volunteering and offering assistance to charities has provided a more holistic approach to the DEI within the organisation. the overall result is a staff more energised, more innovative, and more confident than before which in the long run will be beneficial to IMRO as an organisation and ultimately the customers we serve.“
Keith Johnson, Director of Marketing and Membership, underscores IMRO’s dedication to mental health and wellbeing initiatives.
“Our commitment to fostering a supportive and inclusive workplace extends to prioritising mental health and wellbeing initiatives. From seminars providing practical coping strategies to insightful podcasts featuring experts in the field, we continuously strive to empower our staff and members to prioritise their mental health. As senior leaders, we actively participate in and endorse these initiatives, recognising the importance of leading by example. By openly engaging in discussions surrounding mental health and wellbeing, we aim to break down stigmas and create a culture where seeking support is encouraged and celebrated. Our decision to enter IMRO into The Workplace Excellence Awards in the category of ‘Excellence in Workplace Diversity, Culture, and Inclusion’ is a testament to our unwavering dedication to these values.”
IMRO’s entry into The Workplace Excellence Awards reflects its steadfast dedication to creating a workplace where every individual feels valued, supported, and empowered. By prioritising diversity, culture and inclusion, IMRO not only enriches its organisational culture but also drives innovation and delivers better business results.
