Join RFBF’s Brian Grim for “Corporate Responsibility in the International Religious Freedom (IRF) Space: Challenges and Opportunities,” a panel discussion on Tuesday, 4th February, 3:30pm, at the IRF Summit in Washington DC, with Fr. Greg McBrayer (American Airlines) and Simon Billenness (No Business With Genocide).

“From Ford to Walmart, some big companies dialed back diversity efforts as activists pressed. Under the next Trump administration, the pressure will grow,” observes a recent WSJ article. In this environment, it is all the more important to demonstrate how freedom of religion and belief in the workplace is not just a diversity issue, it is a bottom line business benefit.

Forbes’ Chief Impact Officer Seth Cohen and I recently had a conversation on the business benefits of faith-friendly workplaces at the NASDAQ MarketSite in New York. You can share your views here by commenting on the video about how you business leaders can leverage faith in the workplace to drive innovation and collaboration.

“I have found that to engage the world, you have to have a soft heart, a hard head and ready hands.”

RFBF Board member, Chris Seiple, argues that the way to overcome division, discord and deceit is by loving your neighbor. Easier said than done.

“While there are people of faith (and no faith at all) who stand ready to partner in taking on our most pressing challenges, they are not quite sure how,” says Chris, “particularly when the task at hand requires them to work with someone who does not look, vote or pray as they do.”

Chris provides three keys to loving your neighbor in a multibelief world: having a soft heart, a hard head, and ready hands.

A Music Fast Changed My Life—A Media Fast Might Heal Yours

Fasting from Media

65% say they always or often feel exhausted when thinking about politics according to Pew Research. Fasting from Media can revive us.

Research shows massive numbers of people are trapped in partisan echo chambers. Social and partisan media reinforce bias and polarization by providing a diet of repetitive refrains with limited depth and breadth that limit our spirituality and minds.

In a new article, I trace how a 10-month fast from music changed my life. I suggest that a media fast — be it 10 hours, 10 days or 10 months — can not only open up the creative voices that are in your soul, it can cure exhaustion and curb anger.

Antidote to incivility: Tap virtues that faith reinforces

At the start of 2024, SHRM launched the Civility Index to gauge the current climate of civility across the U.S. This pulse report is part of a continuous effort to track and understand trends in civility within U.S. society and workplaces.

The Index found that incivility carries a hefty price tag for businesses—and it’s getting pricier. According to SHRM, in Q4 2024 the collective daily loss by U.S. organizations is more than $2.7 billion from reduced productivity and absenteeism due to incivility. If that level continues, it would add up to nearly $1 trillion annually ($989 billion).

This is a staggering cost, but the Q4 finding is particularly alarming because it represents an average daily increase of nearly $600 million compared to Q3.

A largely untapped antidote to this rising tide of incivility is to openly tap virtues that faith reinforces.

A useful definition of virtue come from the Vatican’s Catechism, which in paraphrase states that a virtue is an habitual and firm disposition to do the good. It allows people not only to perform good acts, but to give the best of themselves. Virtuous people tend toward the good with all their sensory and spiritual powers; they pursue the good and chooses it in concrete actions.

This definition draws on this scriptural admonition: “Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things” (Philippians 4:8).

Andrew Abela, dean of the Busch School of Business at The Catholic University of America, is perhaps the leading thinker on the topic of virtue and business. Realizing that many “check their faith at the door” when they enter the workplace and that this incongruity is a widespread phenomenon, not just confined to Catholics, he asks,  “How can we live a unified life, a life of integrity – where our faith and our work are fully integrated?”

He suggests that the answer lies in the concept of “virtue” – simply put – good habits, with the opposite being a vice, a bad habit. Things like lying, cheating, stealing and gossiping are bad habits, or vices, while being kind and being trustworthy are good habits, or virtues.

But, he asks, “What is the connection of virtue to religion?” From a religious point of view, people are created in God’s image, and therefore, living by the dictates of God to not lie, cheat, steal, and so on are not only harmful to others but also harmful to ourselves. The good news, according to Abela, is that virtues can be practiced, and as such, become our operating system. And the more we practice them, they become a habit.

The good news is that virtues can be practiced whether one is religious or not, but religion provides not only extra incentives to live up to the ideal (e.g., approval of God), but also resources that reinforce the habits (e.g., prayer, meditation, accountability to a congregation).

Dare to Overcome 2024 Roundtable Discussion: Advancing Human Rights and Business Skills Education

The Dare to Overcome 2024 roundtable discussion focused on advancing the Dare to Overcome Human Rights, Business Skills & Peace Secondary School Curriculum, an innovative initiative aligned with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 16. This program, piloted in India, combines human rights education with business skills to foster inclusive peace and prepare students for future challenges.

Key Updates from the Roundtable

Opening Remarks by Dr. Brian Grim (DTO Chair): Dr. Grim emphasized the potential global impact of the curriculum, highlighting its origin in Geneva and desired adaptations in Fiji, Ghana, Nigeria, the Philippines, and beyond. He noted India’s pioneering role in integrating this curriculum, supported by institutions like the National Institute of Advanced Studies (NIAS) and MIT World Peace University (MIT-WPU). He called for corporate support to fund and scale the project, emphasizing the curriculum’s alignment with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) mandates.

Following Dare to Overcome (DTO) India 2024, we had meetings in Nepal to explore the potential for a similar initiative in Nepal and the applicability of our Human Rights and Business Skills Education initiative. Potential partners from Nepal participated in DTO India. While there was openness and interest, the basic needs for development and employment dominated the discussions.

New Delhi, India – December 10, 2024 – The Dare to Overcome (DTO) 2024 conference, held on December 9 at the India Habitat Centre, New Delhi, concluded with resounding success, promoting peace and unity through intercultural understanding. The event brought together global leaders, innovators, and Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) from leading corporations to celebrate and champion diversity, equity, and inclusion in workplaces and communities.

A key highlight of the conference was the presentation of the King Husein Global Business & Intercultural Peace Awards, which recognized exemplary leaders in three categories: Core Business; Social Investment & Philanthropy; and Advocacy & Public Policy Engagement. The honorees for 2024 were Jyotsna Suri and Lawrence Chong (Core Business), Abha Dalmia and Akhil Gupta (Social Investment & Philanthropy), and Shombi Sharp and Baroness Verma (Advocacy & Public Policy Engagement). These leaders exemplify how businesses can foster interfaith harmony and drive meaningful societal change.

The event also featured the unveiling of the 2024 India REDI Monitor Report by the Religious Freedom & Business Foundation. This report highlighted the top 10 companies excelling in religious diversity and inclusion practices, underscoring India’s leadership in leveraging its cultural diversity as a strategic business advantage. REDI Monitor Report recognized top-performing companies on the BSE 100 for their exemplary efforts in promoting religious equity, diversity, and inclusion. Companies such as Godrej, Reliance Industries, Britannia, HDFC Life, Larsen & Toubro, Aditya Birla, InterGlobe, Hindalco, Indian Oil, Samvardhana Motherson, and Shree Cement were highlighted for their commitment to fostering faith-friendly workplaces. The report revealed that 98% of BSE 100 companies incorporate mentions or illustrations of religion in their diversity practices, positioning India as a leader in workplace inclusion globally. By comparison, the 2024 US REDI Monitor reports 86% of Fortune 500 companies mention or illustrate religion on their diversity pages, and the 2024 UK REDI Monitor finds that 79% of companies on the FTSE 100 Index do likewise.”

The event featured insightful panels, including ‘Changemakers on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusivity,’ with speakers like Parmesh Shahani, Dr. Anjlee Agarwal, and Keshav Suri, and ‘Women and Workplace Inclusivity,’ featuring Baroness Verma, Sahira Nair, and Sanjoy K. Roy. Special sessions included a fireside chat on ‘Designing the Future – AI, Ethics & Faith’ with Lawrence Chong and Anirudh Suri, and ‘Paths to the Divine,’ which explored faith, interconnectedness, and diversity, with insights from Haji Syed Salman Chishti and Archbishop Dr. Felix Machado.

A series of cultural performances enriched the day, starting with Maestro Sessions by Raghav Chandra and Ishan Sharma, the soulful melodies of ‘Faqat by Alif’ in the afternoon, and culminating in an electrifying gala performance by the ‘Kutle Khan Project,’ showcasing the vibrant rhythms of Rajasthan. This extraordinary gathering left attendees inspired by the power of intercultural understanding and collective harmony

Brian Grim, Global Chairperson Dare to Overcome, said, “The resounding success of Dare to Overcome 2024 highlights the transformative potential of diversity and inclusion in shaping pathways to peace and innovation. India’s rich cultural and spiritual heritage has once again demonstrated its capacity to inspire the world by showcasing how unity in diversity drives societal and corporate progress.”

The event showcased how varied backgrounds, beliefs, and cultures converge in India to create innovation and collaboration. By embracing unique ideas and perspectives, we can continue to strengthen the diversity that defines our corporate landscape and drives collective success.”

Syed Shams Jawaid, Producer Dare to Overcome & Vice President, International Events Teamwork Arts, remarked, “Hosting the second annual Dare to Overcome Conference in India has been an incredible journey of celebrating Unity in Diversity. This year’s event reaffirmed the importance of India’s cultural and spiritual richness as a business asset, fostering innovation and collaboration. Bringing together visionary leaders to build a more inclusive and promising future remains at the heart of our mission, and this event has furthered that goal in meaningful ways.”

DTO 2024 also introduced the Human Rights, Business Skills & Peace Secondary School Curriculum, an initiative designed to educate future generations on the intersection of human rights and business skills. This innovative curriculum aims to build inclusive communities by integrating constitutional rights with essential professional capabilities.

Indian BSE Companies Outperform Fortune 500 and FTSE 100 on Religious Inclusion Measure

Most BSE 100 Companies Mention Religion as Part of Diversity Commitments

New Corporate Religious Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (REDI) Monitor Gives Top Marks to 10 BSE-Listed Companies  

However, No BSE 100 Report Having Faith-Related Affinity Groups

Companies can opt-in to benchmarking REDI Index in 2025

(New Delhi, India) – A new annual ranking of the 100 largest companies on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE 100) shows nearly all mention faith and religion as part of corporate diversity commitments. The secular Religious Freedom & Business Foundation’s new Corporate Religious Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (REDI) Monitor, released today, gives high marks to major companies like Godrej, Reliance, and Interglobe (parent company of Indigo) for recognizing the importance of faith in the lives of employees and customers.

The 2024 India REDI Monitor establishes a new benchmark for annual assessment of the state of corporate India’s inclusion of religion as an integral part of its diversity initiatives. Not only does it allow domestic trends to be monitored, it also allows Indian companies to be viewed in comparison with global peers. For example, Nearly all (98%) of the BSE 100 mention or illustrate religion on their diversity pages. substantially higher than both the share of Fortune 500 and FTSE 100 companies. The 2024 US REDI Monitor reports 86% of Fortune 500 companies mention or illustrate religion on their diversity pages, and the 2024 UK REDI Monitor finds that 79% of companies on the FTSE 100 Index do likewise (see chart).

In addition to this positive inclusivity trend emerging in a number of major Indian corporations, the REDI Monitor also reveals opportunities for continued growth among BSE 100 companies. While some BSE 100 companies report having employee resource groups (ERGs) for diversity characteristics such as gender and sexual orientation, there is no public mention of such groups for faith-oriented ERGs among BSE companies. By contrast, 62 Fortune 500 companies (12.4%) publicly report having faith-oriented ERGs and 12% of FTSE 100 companies have such ERGs. Having such ERGs is one of 11 best practices companies around the world benchmark using the opt-in REDI Index. For instance, high-scoring Salesforce’s faith-and-belief business equality ERG ‘Faithforce’ has its largest chapter in India.

“This is a remarkable achievement for India, an indication that its top performing businesses are drawing on the country’s rich cultural and religious diversity as a business advantage in an increasingly globalised and diverse world,” said Dr. Brian Grim, Chair of Dare to Overcome, a global corporate diversity initiative with annual meetings in Washington DC, London, and New Delhi. “We look forward to celebrating this achievement on Monday 9th December at our 2nd annual Dare to Overcome “Unity in Diversity” business conference in New Delhi,” remarked Grim, who is also President of the secular Religious Freedom & Business Foundation, the leading global authority on issues surrounding how faith contributes to global business and economic success.

The top ten companies in the 2024 India REDI Monitor raking are (in alphabetical order):

• — Britannia Industries
• — Godrej Consumer Products
• — HDFC Life Insurance Company
• — Hindalco Industries
• — Indian Oil Corporation
• — Interglobe Aviation
• — Larsen & Toubro
• — Reliance Industries
• — Samvardhana Motherson International
• — Shree Cement

India’s biggest brands recognise that respect for cultural and religious diversity is vital to recruitment, retention and creating a productive work environment. “As I noted in a report for the World Economic Forum, with religious affiliation and diversity continuing to grow world-wide between now and 2050, companies that fail to understand the value of a religiously inclusive workplace are increasingly at a competitive disadvantage,” stated Grim.

2024 India REDI Monitor Top Line Findings include:

• – Nearly every company (98%) mentions or illustrates religion as part of their commitment to workplace diversity, with 17% doing so on their main diversity webpage, 76% on another diversity-related page, and 5% doing so with an image only
• – 71% of the BSE 100 signal religious inclusion through images
• – 73% of the BSE 100 provide links to dig deeper into their diversity programmes
• – 44% of the BSE 100 mention the rationale for their diversity commitments
• – 73% have social media posts on X (formerly known as Twitter) related to religion and/or religious diversity

Not only do 98% of the BSE 100 showcase diversity through statements and images, but more than 7-in-10 (73%) also celebrate festivals by posting faith-positive greetings on their social media accounts year after year. Also, religion is prominently reflected in the unsaid Standard Operating Procedures, which include practices such as lighting a diya before any inauguration or event, applying tilak, and decorating for Christmas.

“The presence of faith-based diversity in Indian corporations is as organic as Indian society itself,” said Dr. Farha Iman, a senior researcher on the REDI Monitor study. “However,” she also notes that “in the current socio-political landscape, managing this diversity necessitates extra effort to ensure the effective and efficient functioning of the organization. The presence of diversity doesn’t automatically ensure safety but faith fluent management and measures ensures it.”

While the 2024 REDI Monitor Scores for the BSE 100 reveal nearly all of listed companies reference religion on their Main Diversity Page or elsewhere, none of these companies have established faith-oriented Employee Resource Groups (ERGs). This discrepancy suggests that the representation of diversity within companies may reflect the pluralistic nature of Indian society rather than the organizations’ proactive efforts to create programmes to foster religious diversity, equity and inclusion. The visibility of faith symbols among employees indicates that individuals do bring their faith-based identities to the workplace. Nevertheless, the report highlights that Indian companies are fostering organic and living faith spaces by acknowledging this diversity.

The full study, including its methodology and the rankings of all BSE 100 companies can be found this link.

On Monday, 9th December 2024, at the India Habitat Centre in New Delhi, the the full 2024 India REDI Monitor Report will be presented, with special recognition of they 10 top-scoring companies for their achievement at the 2nd annual Dare to Overcome ‘Unity in Diversity’ conference.

In addition to the REDI Monitor, Indian companies are invited to participate in the India REDI Index survey which will open for companies to opt-in to benchmark their progress in (and be recognized for) including religion and belief as an integral part of their overall commitment to workplace diversity, equity and inclusion. It is free and open to any Indian company with 2,000 or more employees. Indian companies interested in participating in the 2025 edition of the REDI Index have until 1st July 2025 to submit their surveys. Results will be announced at the annual Dare to Overcome “Unity in Diversity” Conference in New Delhi.
