SAN LEANDRO EQUITY PLANRECOMMENDATIONS//CULTURE <br />PROBLEM STATEMENT: <br />RECOMMENDATION #1 <br />Although San Leandro’s diverse population and workforce are perceived as an asset, the City lacks <br />clear mission and vision statements and core values that center DEIB both internally and externally. <br />13 <br />City incorporate DEIB in vision and mission statements and core values and <br />address overall employee well-being, with input from staff. San Leandro strive to <br />hire employees whose personal values align with City values. <br />RATIONALE FOR RECOMMENDATION Establishing core values that <br />center DEIB is foundational to any DEIB initiative(s) and centers the importance <br />of DEIB within the City. It is a critical first step in the implementation of an eq- <br />uity plan. <br />The City’s Sustainability statement begins with, “San Leandro is dedicated to <br />being a sustainable, livable, and equitable city with well-being for all.” <br />“Well-being correlates with important factors like an employee’s intent to stay <br />at a company. Employees who report improved well-being during the pandemic <br />are 65% more likely than others to say they’ll stick with their current employer <br />long term. Those whose well-being has improved are more than twice as likely <br />to have been more productive since working remotely than those who say their <br />well-being has declined.”
