Normalize DEI in Your Organization

Firms that prioritize diversity end up with greater access to talent. They benefit from more innovation. They thrive more in our globalized economic systems. Yet, diversity and the inclusion of marginalized people remains an acute business, social and cultural challenge.

It involves putting into place the systems and structures, the accountability measures, and the metrics to ensure that talented people thrive and advance unencumbered by obstacles, systemic biases or discriminatory policies.
