Send us a text

In this episode of The Inclusive Edge: The Power of Diversity, I am Andrea joined by Mo Kanjilal Williams, co-founder of Watch This Space with expertise in inclusive communication, to explore the vital role of inclusive language in today’s workplaces. Together, we dive into how intentional language choices can foster environments where everyone feels seen, valued, and respected.

Mo shares insights on the impact of inclusive language, emphasising that small shifts in words and phrases can create powerful connections, the importance of respecting pronouns as a simple yet effective way to validate identity and build trust.

For those beginning their inclusive language journey, Mo highlights easy first steps, from becoming aware of language patterns to diversifying media consumption to broaden perspectives. The episode wraps up with guidance for organisations looking to support inclusive language and create a culture where respect and inclusivity are the standard.

Listeners will come away with actionable tips on how to adopt inclusive communication practices in their own workplaces. This conversation reminds us that language is powerful—and with intention, it can be a force for inclusion and belonging.

Tune in to learn how to harness the power of words to create a more inclusive and dynamic work environment!
