Overview

This 2025 Virtual Workplace Summit session explores why effective inclusion and belonging efforts require both global strategy and deep local insight. It introduces Out & Equal’s glocalization framework, which brings global organizations and in-country leaders together to adapt inclusion practices to local cultures and build authentic buy-in.

The discussion demonstrates how two-way collaboration replaces traditional headquarters-driven models, using local perspectives to strengthen and inform global best practices. Grounded in Out & Equal’s global research and partnerships, the session offers practical insight into how organizations can scale inclusion, foster belonging, and drive meaningful change across regions.
