Five Ps Diversity Workshop: Progress
The Five Ps framework was developed by UK Music to give organisations of all sizes a flexible and adaptable approach to designing a diversity strategy that aligns with their unique needs and culture.
Navigating how to tackle barriers to inclusion and diversity can be very complex. Therefore, following the initial launch of the Five Ps in 2022 and the release of an online resource guide in 2025, the next step is to bring the framework to life through expert-led, interactive sessions that explore the key themes of the Five Ps in depth.
These online 60-minute sessions will focus on areas from the Five Ps, that the UK Music Diversity Taskforce have collectively identified. The first session will be focused on PROGRESS.
WHO IS IT FOR?
The sessions is for HR executives, hiring managers, leaders, and staff who influence people, decisions, culture, and organisational systems.
WHAT WILL THE SESSIONS COVER?
Impact can be measured in a number of ways, but charting progress is one of the most fundamental pillars of measuring success. This can range from raising awareness about reporting standards, to publishing data, which is relevant to encouraging progress. Where possible, reporting must be intersectional and go beyond the very basic or legal requirements. The areas to focus on can be broadly categorised as follows:
Raise awareness:
Internally and externally around EDI audit, review and outcomes.Share data and insights:
Establish best practice by publishing data on gender, ethnicity and disability pay gaps annually.*Progress and report:
Increase data transparency and take an intersectional approach to data analysis.
*In recognition of resource demands, these apply to organisations with more than 25 employees only.
