RICS: Applying Diversity & Inclusion Principles in a Global Setting with Deborah Nicol-Omeruah & Dele Oyekanmi #72
May 22, 2023 Episode 72
The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors

As the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors is an organisation with global reach, there’s a key consideration for diversity and inclusion standards with respect to local regulations and cultural norms.

Playing a huge role in this is the Standards & Regulation Board, and we’re joined on The RICS Podcast this week by two of its members - Deborah Nicol-Omeruah & Dele Oyekanmi.

Deborah & Dele join Christine O’Rourke to share how RICS members should consider approaches to diversity & inclusion-related issues with respect to international conventions.

This episode of The RICS Podcast covers:

  • The Standards & Regulation Board’s approach to applying ethical values globally
  • Approaching the challenge of applying rules of conduct in countries with differing views on LGBTQ issues
  • How RICS imparts its rules of conduct in a way which doesn’t overly impose a UK-based outlook on global territories
