The Attraction-Retention Gap
Recruitment is only half the battle. NAMP focuses on Retention by ensuring that once Muslim talent joins, the environment is supportive enough for them to thrive and reach senior leadership.
Addressing Core Needs
Using Maslow's hierarchy, we identify that while physiological needs are often met, Safety and Belonging are where progress is most critical.
