Aligning Organization Principles
with Business Goals
It is important to connect the organization's DEI
identity and mission to its performance objectives
both from a business driver and risk-reduction
perspective. Values, talent strategy, a culture of
continuous learning, and engagement and retention
practices exist in the broader framework of the
organization's culture, governance, technology
and measurement conventions. A vibrant and
successful DEI vision operates fully within the
context of these structures and works
congruently to achieve growth on all levels.
Additional factors serve as success
levers or variables that can influence
organizational change: global
agility, scalability, assessments,
and stakeholder commitment
impact the framework
for DEI initiatives.
External influencers, such as
2020's racial and social justice
movements, and internal
executive-level leadership
are strong levers that can
necessitate new action or
adjustments.
