Effective communication is more than just delivering a message—it’s about ensuring that message resonates with and includes everyone. In a recent interview, Jerrica Thurman, President and CEO of Elation Communications, shared valuable insights on how organizations and individuals can foster inclusive communication practices to create meaningful connections with diverse audiences.
Inclusive communication has become a cornerstone of corporate culture, educational institutions, and public policy in recent years. However, recent developments, such as Trump’s executive order concerning Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs, have sparked significant debate over the role of inclusivity in the workplace and beyond. While the order aims to restrict DEI training and initiatives in federal agencies and contractors, it does not diminish the need for inclusive communication, a practice that is essential for building effective, respectful, and dynamic organizations.
Inclusive communication creates meaningful connections that respect diverse perspectives, foster understanding, and ensure everyone feels valued.
