Allyship refers to an active and supportive role that individuals or groups from privileged or majority backgrounds take to advocate for and empower marginalised communities. Allyship involves recognizing and understanding the systemic barriers and injustices faced by marginalised groups, and actively working to dismantle those barriers through actions, education, and amplification of marginalised voices.

Intersectionality recognises that people belong to multiple social categories at the same time (this means, evidently, we all have gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and are born into a certain socio-economic class). These social categories are overlapping and interconnected, not independent (this means, for example, that an African American woman is not African American one day and a woman the next – she is always an African American woman). Everyone’s experiences are unique, because experiences of one social category are also linked to membership of their other categories.

Delta works with your organisation to examine the status quo through an intersectional lens and work toward cultural change that meets your organisation’s goals.

Bias is the tendency to have negative (or positive) attitudes towards certain individuals or groups, and often leads to unfair treatment or unearned advantage of one group or individuals over others. Biases are part of the everyday human experience, they can never be truly eradicated.  However, biases do have a significant impact on work, affecting decision-making, team dynamics, career outcomes and overall organisational success. It is therefore important to understand the impact of bias and for leaders and team members and to develop the skills to mitigate or reduce its negative impact.

Neurodiversity describes the full range of human differences in the way that information is reasoned with and interpreted. Neurodivergence or neurodivergency on the other hand describes the 15-20% of people where some of these cognitive processes differ from the majority population. Typically, neurodivergence is commonly associated with neurodevelopmental conditions such as ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), Autism, Dyslexia, among many others.

A psychologically safe culture is one where people are confident that their voices are heard and valued at work. In psychologically safe cultures, team members are more likely to speak up, ask questions, learn, contribute, and challenge others in a respectful manner because they don’t fear negative consequences.

The concept of ‘race fluency’ was developed following ground-breaking research conducted by Delta’s Founder and CEO Dr Doyin Atewologun in 2014.  The study found that business leaders are clearer, more eloquent and more confident when articulating talent management strategies that resolve gender inequities compared to solutions for racial inequities. A lack of race fluency and low race confidence prevents organisations from meaningfully addressing racial and ethnic underrepresentation, from board level to pipeline initiatives. It is a foundational capability required for businesses striving to meet their racial equity goals.
