The Business Case for Diversity and Inclusion

This week, I had the opportunity to kick off the HCI Inclusive Diversity event in San Francisco with some opening remarks outlining the business case for Diversity & Inclusion. Why the business case?

But how do you convince a group of senior level executives that you need resources to produce a successful D&I program at your organization? That’s where the business case becomes necessary. What follows is a breakdown of the business case for D&I, complete with the relevant stats to help you make an airtight argument for a program like this at your own organization.



Embrace Talent Diversity in Your Sourcing Strategy

It's no secret that many companies struggle to nurture and promote diversity. As we see time and time again, diversity and its advancement are goals without easy solutions. Rather than be turned off by complexity and difficulty, companies and recruiters must approach diversity like they would any other issue, with determination, curiosity, and creativity. That’s what we’ve done here at Entelo, which is why diversity is one of our core tenets and its advancement is behind one of our flagship products.

Beyond the moral and ethical reasons, there are business considerations for why every company ought to make diversity a priority. Countless studies have shown that diversity initiatives improve morale, corporate culture, employee retention and recruitment, all of which increase a company’s competitive advantage.
