#003 Today, we're extremely pleased to welcome Heidi Robertson, Group Head of D&I at ABB, a leading Global 500 technology company driving digital transformation through industrial automation, robotics and electrification. As a matter of fact, 2021 was an important year for DEI at ABB : it marked the first year of rolling out their 2030 D&I Strategy. And so we take a deep dive with Heidi as she takes us on a pragmatic step-by-step tour of how to set up and roll-out a 10-year D&I strategy. From stakeholder management in setting up the strategy, to measuring progress and ensuring accountability and ownership for reaching the newly-set goals, we discuss how to meet global goals while promoting local and grassroot initiatives. Honesty and transparency about the progress already been made and the journey that remains are two of the key criteria that Heidi shares with us for an efficient and reliable strategy. On a more personal level, we talk about the concept of privilege and the sense of duty that comes with it. When we asked Heidi what the hardest part of the job was for her, she answered: “being patient: there is no quick fix or fast solutions in DEI”. Luckily for Heidi, reaching 2030 goals starts with taking action today!Tune in today, and subscribe to not miss our next episode next week!Do not hesitate to follow Heidi Robertson on LinkedIn to continue following her journey as a DEI leader.

We are delighted to welcome ABB’s Heidi Robertson to the EMEA Recruitment podcast, to speak about her experiences of living around the world and how she brings her holistic attitude to life into the office. “Life is too short not to try to influence, in a positive way, your surrounding and your people.” Heidi has not only lived and worked in many different countries, but she also speaks four languages and has been with ABB for 19 years now, making her an interesting business podcast guest for listeners around the globe. She is now the Group Head of Diversity & Inclusion and Employer Brand at ABB in Switzerland, but lives in her homeland of Norway.  Having lived and worked throughout Europe and the USA, Heidi gained valuable experiences in people, culture and politics in early adulthood, which has given her a “go for it” mentality.  As a working mum of three, Heidi names her grandmother as her number one mentor; someone who is not only family-oriented, but has also taught her to stand up for what’s right and treat people equally. It’s something she brings to her role at ABB. Heidi believes that every employee is responsible for contributing to the D&I agenda, but that line managers and leaders have a responsibility to foster a more diverse workforce and inclusive culture. She’s hoping that D&I will become the DNA of the people, company and culture at ABB – and, ultimately, other businesses worldwide.  So, how does such a hard-working professional relax at the weekends? She discusses this and so much more with our Founder, Paul Toms.   Use the helpful timestamps below to listen to Heidi: Where home is for Heidi - 02:00 Moving back to Norway - 04:00 Learning languages and studying abroad - 06:00 The key to recruiting and retaining good people - 08:45 The importance of a good company culture and good leadership - 09:00 Leading Diversity & Inclusion at ABB - 10:45 How leading by example, inclusive leadership and culture, and challenging unconscious biases fosters a diverse workforce and an inclusive culture in large organisations - 12:10 Embedding Diversity & Inclusion in the DNA of an organisation - 14:45 Heidi’s mentor - 16:10 How Heidi prioritises her work/balances work and home life - 19:10 How Heidi’s positivity and interest in people helps her personal development - 23:00 How positivity connects people - 24:45 Influences and inspirations - 26:20 How to connect with Heidi - 28:40   If you’d like to connect with Heidi Robertson, visit her LinkedIn profile here: linkedin.com/in/heidi-robertson-66940b7 This podcast was hosted by the Founder of EMEA, Paul Toms, and Executive Recruiters and Senior Consultant, Jenny Callum.
