Course details
Does your company have a diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) initiative in place? While you may have taken many actions—conducting trainings, setting goals, increasing diverse demographics—these are just the start of the journey if you’re serious about embedding DEIB throughout your corporate ecosystem. In this course, Dr. Tana M. Session teaches leaders how to leverage data and metrics to help drive DEIB ROI in organizations. She explains how to identify and evaluate specific metrics to validate DEIB effectiveness, and ways to overcome roadblocks to collecting data and making real change. Tana covers ways you can establish core data and metrics to affect your organization's talent strategy, translate employee feedback into goals and metrics, and how you can best manage expectations around organizational change. And, as successful DEIB appears and feels different in every organization, learn how to customize DEIB metrics to match your growth needs and workforce strategy.
