A recent survey by The Conference Board reveals that women and Black individuals place significantly higher value on diversity, equity & inclusion (DEI) in the workplace compared to their counterparts. This finding highlights the different impact and perceived importance of DEI initiatives among diverse employee groups, guiding organizations to consider these perspectives in their DEI strategies.

Key Insights

  • Women demand enhanced DEI efforts in the workplace; to engage women, leaders should tailor DEI strategies in ways that align with their expectations and values.
  • Black workers support DEI efforts more than other racial groups; leaders hoping to retain all talent should consider this when crafting DEI strategy.
  • Most Black women would not work at an organization that does not take DEI seriously; leaders should consider DEI programs that serve all but include elements that address the unique needs of Black women in worker, managerial, and leadership roles.
