Workplace diversity has impact on businesses

KUALA LUMPUR: While climate change and diversity in the workplace have distinct challenges, they both have notable similarities as they result in social and business impact, says Datuk Ami Moris, who is chair of 30% Club Malaysia and Maybank Investment Banking Group (Maybank IBG) chief executive officer.

“Each is a source of imminent pressure for companies, from multiple stakeholder groups including investors, employees, governments and clients,” she said at an online discussion entitled “Climate Action powered by Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI)” here recently.
