Diversity, Equity and Inclusion - or DEI as it’s known - has had a rough ride lately. Legal challenges, political pressure, and polarized public opinion have resulted in many big brand names stepping back from their DEI commitments. Does this mean the end for DEI? To discuss this and to offer a more optimistic view, Lucy is joined by her co-founder at Disruptive HR, Karen Moran.
They debate whether the recent rolling back on DEI commitments from US corporations are a necessary pragmatism or cynical opportunism. Or whether this could even mean a welcome reset for DEI strategies.
Lucy and Karen explore the problems with the way DEI has been delivered in recent years and how this has potentially led to DEI becoming, ironically, quite alienating for many people. They question the impact of the compliance-focused approach to DEI and provide examples of alternative strategies from more progressive companies, including using nudges and AI to check and avoid bias. Finally, they look at how companies are using more human language and focusing on helping managers and their teams have great conversations as a way of ensuring DEI can actually be more inclusive!
