The Focus of DEI – A Business Imperative

In this webcast we will help organizations understand the DEI business imperative, strategies for accelerating DEI maturity and how to implement best practices needed for a healthy and productive workplace culture. We will explore

• Where you start and not where you finish: Assess where your organization might be on the DEI Maturity Model.
• Leadership Accountability: Implement and model inclusive leadership best practices at all levels within the organization.
• Create an outcomes-focused DEI road map/strategy: Implement robust talent management programs and employee communication vehicles that are guided by a long-term strategy and grounded in delivering on diversity, equity and inclusion based on your organization’s mission, vision, and values.
• Thread the DEI needle across all aspects of your business: Position DEI as the lens through which you address the critical needs of your business; engage and value all employees, while clearly communicating your organizational brand and value proposition.
• Employee Resource Groups, Business Resource Groups and Diversity Councils: Strategically structure ERGS, BRGs, and Diversity Councils to have direct alignment to business outcomes, talent optimization, performance development and workplace culture. Whether ERGs are new to your organization or fully established and already yielding an ROI, ERG governance, management, programming or measurement should reflect organizational culture.
• Show and leverage the numbers: Use data to identify gaps, serve as proof points for short-term and long-term clearly described goals.
• DEI Training and a healthy workplace: Leverage training and related communication tools to create and sustain a healthy and productive workplace culture.
