Webinar Description: Advancing an organization’s approach to diversity, equity and inclusion strategies that fosters a culture of trust and belonging has become a critical aspect of organizational development. Many Organizations have made DEI&B commitments, yet few have made meaningful and measurable progress. A 2022 report from Culture Champ indicated that HR leaders and DEI practitioners, while half of surveyed companies reported having a DEI mission statement, only 49% have a strategic diversity plan in place.

81% reported that they believe that DEI initiatives are beneficial to their organizations. However, only 34% of respondents reported having enough resources to support their DEI initiatives. These are both crucial steps in creating the organizational alignment necessary to create lasting, structural change.

In this webinar we will support you in closing the gap in your understanding to help move well-intentioned mission statements to actionable policies and why standardization is the critical component for sustainable change. We will address a common misconception in many organizations: the belief that a mission statement on DEIB equates to a policy and clarify why a statement of intent, while valuable, does not constitute a policy or a standard operating procedure. True policies are actionable, with clear steps and accountability measures. Standardization is crucial for embedding DEIB into the very fabric of organizational operations, ensuring consistency, accountability, and sustainability in DEI&B efforts.
