3 Key Takeaways:
- Metrics around diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) focus too much on recruitment. However, DEI challenges are much deeper than that and do not end with recruiting more minorities. Minorities have a different experience in the workplace.
- It is not enough to just discuss DEI. Data is necessary to bring in real action. If you don’t measure something, it’s not going to work.
- What you want to achieve may seem quite daunting, but remember that people who have ‘made it’ also started from somewhere. Embrace your passion, develop a plan, and work that plan until your idea reveals a greater purpose.
