What is an employee resource group / ERG?

An Employee Resource Group (ERG) is a voluntary, employee-led group that brings together individuals who share a common identity, interest, or experience — such as gender, race, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, caregiving status, or shared values and goals. ERGs are often supported by the organisation and play a key role in promoting inclusion and belonging in the workplace.

ERGs typically focus on:

  • Building community and connection
  • Supporting professional and personal development
  • Raising awareness and driving cultural change
  • Advising on inclusive policies and practices
  • Providing a voice to underrepresented or marginalised groups

ERGs are also known as Affinity Groups, Communities, Business Resource Groups (BRGs), or Employee Networks, depending on the organisation.

At Radius Networks, we support ERGs to grow, lead with impact, and align with organisational goals — while staying true to their grassroots purpose.

What types of training do you offer for employee networks and ERGs?

We offer a wide range of online, in-person and bespoke training programmes, including:

  • Leadership development for employee network leads and ERG chairs
  • Training for Inclusion & Belonging Allies
  • Training & coaching for Executive Sponsors
  • Training for employee network and ERG communicators

All of our programmes are designed to be practical, inclusive, and tailored to your needs.

Do you offer customised ERG support for organisations?

Yes. We provide bespoke consultancy services to organisations that want to grow, improve, or restructure their employee networks and communities. This includes strategy development, leadership coaching, diagnostics, and ongoing advisory support – led by our global team of expert consultants

How can Radius Networks help our ERG leaders be more effective?

We equip ERG and network leaders with the tools, training, and confidence to lead with impact. Our support focuses on developing leadership skills, aligning with business goals, managing time and resources, and creating sustainable business impact.

Do you offer events or summits for employee networks?

Yes! Radius Networks helps organisations to plan and host summits and events that bring together network and ERG leaders to share best practice, celebrate successes, and plan for the year ahead.

What is the Radius Networks ERG Playbook?

Why should organisations invest in employee networks and resource groups?

Strong employee networks and ERGs drive inclusion, engagement, and innovation. They help organisations to attract and retain talent, build community, and create a sense of belonging. Radius Networks can help you to unlock that potential through expert guidance, consultancy, training and support.

Check out our Global ERG Impact Report for examples of how ERGs are driving lasting business impact. Featuring the world’s most inclusive employers – including Novartis, EY, Google, HSBC, Tesco, BBC, Disney, Nike, Siemens, Ericsson and many more – the report highlights the vital role ERGs play in future proofing organisations and driving People, Culture and Inclusion strategies.

 

We Build Belonging

Organisations with thriving employee networks, resource groups and communities do so much better. They perform better financially, they innovate and they attract and retain the best talent.

We’ll work with you to inspire a purpose driven culture, where people are empowered to transform their space of work. We believe that EDI is everyone’s business, so we’ll help you to build belonging at every level.
