Strategy
Kantar’s global Inclusion Index score hasn’t shifted between 2020 and 2022, remaining steady on 55%, and employees are now demanding systemic change.
Why it matters
DEI issues have risen up the corporate agenda over the past couple of years but while we may be talking more about diversity and inclusion at work, it seems that’s not being translated into substantive action.
Takeaways
- When DEI strategies and plans land well they have a positive impact, but what was a good DEI strategy in 2020 isn’t necessarily still a good one in 2022.
- Seven in 10 employees believe that their organisation is actively taking steps to be more diverse and inclusive, but nearly half also say their company needs to do more to drive DEI forward.
- There are potentially significant costs to inaction: 25% of employees are likely to leave their organisations due to the lack of inclusion or discrimination they have experienced.
