Belonging in the Workplace

Belonging is a sense of fitting in, or feeling like you are an important member of a group. A feeling of belonging describes a sense of truly meshing with others, especially friends, family members, or other sympathetic folks. Social belonging is a fundamental human need, hardwired into our DNA, and yet 40% of people say that they feel isolated at work. This playlist contains useful information, articles and practical things you do to play a part in creating an environment which we can all thrive as our authentic selves.

Social belonging is the feeling that you’re a valued and accepted member of a group. It’s important for every person to feel they belong in all areas of their life, including their workplace. Yet, in some organizations, a significant proportion of employees feel isolated or that they don’t belong. They’re missing out on a fundamental human requirement. A need for social belonging is hardwired into our DNA.

In this course, you’ll find out how to create a culture of belonging for your co-workers. You’ll discover actions to apply in hybrid, remote, and face-to-face workplaces. You’ll also explore ways to use language that will help everyone feel respected and valued.
