Welcome
to MDB Group's four-part series, "
Diversity and Inclusion as a Business Strategy for Any
Organization."
We often hear questions such as:
- What should our diversity and inclusion strategy do?
- Do I need a diversity strategy?
- How do I get my CEO and senior leaders committed to
our diversity work?
This
series answers these questions with a comprehensive
introduction to Business-Aligned® diversity
and inclusion (D&I) planning. An abstract of the series
follows:
Sustainable diversity and
inclusion (D&I) initiatives are about helping
achieve the organization’s key business
goals by applying a workforce and workplace lens
to the business goals. When grounded
in these principles, D&I initiatives become
core business strategies that engage CEOs and
senior leaders and enable meaningful workplace
culture change. These principles apply to all
organizations whether they are global or local,
for-profit or not-for-profit, corporate or academic
or governmental.
D&I initiatives should:
- Focus intently on achieving key business
objectives.
- Build a workforce with employees from all
different backgrounds to ensure sufficient
breadth and depth of capabilities.
- Build a workplace in which everyone has
the skills and cultural competence to communicate
and work well together with colleagues that
have increasingly diverse cultural backgrounds.
