Why it matters?
Diversity, equity and inclusion are more than buzzwords or corporate values to aspire to, and more than a means to heightened business results.
A commitment to enhancing diversity, equity and inclusion efforts, will lead to increased belonging within the organization. Not only does a culture focused on belonging feel great, it is also a driver for employee engagement, productivity, corporate reputation, attracting top talent, and business results.
Bersin by Deloitte research has found that companies that embrace diversity and inclusion in all aspects of their business statistically outperform their peers. Bersin found that across 128 companies, those with talent practices focused on building a diverse and inclusive workplace, were ranked as high performing organizations, compared to those that did not focus on these areas.
Another study focused on gender diversity found that companies with women board members outperform companies with all male boards. In connection with this, a recent Glassdoor survey, cited in Harvard Business Review, found that top female candidates care about gender diversity at prospective companies. Their study shows that 61% of women look at the diversity of the employer’s leadership team when deciding where to work.
A McKinsey study found that earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) increased by 8% for every 10% increase in the ethnic and gender composition of senior executive teams in the United States.
