Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Delivering through diversity
Fostering a diverse, equitable and inclusive culture brings many benefits to a modern workplace, including fresh thinking, boosted creativity, and a happier and more engaged community. All of which leads to a more commercial and effective organisation. At The Gap Partnership, we invest in a DE&I strategy that impacts all of our functions across multiple initiatives – from our own people, to thought leadership and research. We are proud to be making a positive difference to our business as well our those of our clients and partners.
Gender and negotiation
How do men and women negotiate differently? Which gender
is more likely to say they love negotiating? Do women favour
a collaborative approach, while men prefer aggressive tactics
such as shouting or fist-banging? We answer these questions
and more in our global research which sought to understand
the role that gender plays in negotiation mindset, confidence,
approach, and even team structure.
To find out more, including how you can apply these findings
to optimise your own negotiation performance, read the full report.
