Topaasia's Diversity (DEI) game engages personnel in addressing diversity through conversation. In this blog, organisations that have taken part in DEI game sessions share their experiences of the diversity game sessions.
Promoting diversity is important for openness and thinking
A diverse work community helps diversify the thoughts, perspectives and ideas a company produces. Usually, by addressing diversity, a company wants to promote a more diverse workforce in the work community, and through that also more varied ideas and thoughts. A community that is open and equal to everyone.
What does Topaasia bring to addressing diversity and DEI themes?
Often the only way organisations address workplace diversity and DEI topics is through expert lectures. In them, employees are the listening party. With Topaasia, diversity was addressed among employees through participatory conversation. Topaasia provides an approach to the topic where conversations are at the core, and employees get to participate.
From even difficult themes to interesting conversations
The diversity games have sparked many "wow, this actually works" moments in the games' facilitators, and even things that feel difficult have surprisingly been discussed: "Often a card has come up in the game that I myself might have thought was a difficult card or theme. The participants have then shown that I was wrong. It was not so difficult after all, and it generated really good conversation. The games have produced really interesting opinions and perspectives."
According to the participants' experiences, addressing DEI is important. The playing cards have been good, and they have covered diversity-related matters broadly from many angles.
