If you aren’t taking action to drive diversity and inclusion in your organization at every level then you are missing out on massive opportunities for innovation, revenue and scale.

• On average companies with diverse management see a 19% increase in revenue compared to their less diverse counterparts. 

• Executive teams that are highly gender-diverse are found to be 21% more likely to outperform on profitability. 

• Over a three-year period, companies with a diverse employee population noted an average of 230% increases in cash flow, not just overall, but among individual contributors at the company.

If you are hiring or promoting a D&I leader, do you know what kinds of questions you should be asking? What are you prioritizing in their experience and do you know how to vet for those skills?
