The landscape of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) underwent a significant shift this past year. There was a noted lack of incentive for organizations to continue their DE&I initiatives, often due to the lack of tangible metrics to measure the success of these programs, leading to a perception of DE&I as a ‘nice-to-have’ rather than a ‘must-have’.
And against the global backdrop, DE&I research can play a pivotal role in creating authentic, inclusive cultures that permeate every aspect of a business, industry, and entire market.
