Why Investing in Diversity & Inclusion Pays Off
In this Soundview Live webinar, Why Investing in Diversity & Inclusion Pays Off, Mark Kaplan and Mason Donovan provide a framework to tap the bottom line impact that results from an inclusive culture — the "inclusion dividend." Most leaders have the intent to be inclusive, however translating that intent into a truly inclusive outcome with employees, customers and other stakeholders requires a focused change effort. The authors explain that challenge and provide straightforward advice on how to achieve the kind of meritocracy that will result in a tangible dividend and move companies ahead of their competition.
