Summary
Successful DEI efforts require moving beyond diversity numbers to foster an inclusive environment, as high diversity without inclusion leads to poor retention and organizational performance.
Organizations struggle to quantify the impact of diversity initiatives; thus, innovative tools, such as simulations and combined data analysis, are essential for assessing both inclusion and exclusion.
Emphasizing DEI is crucial not only for ethical reasons but also for enhancing business performance, as inclusive cultures increase retention rates, reduce turnover costs, and ultimately drive profitability.
