Organizations have (finally) begun committing to and investing in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), catalyzed by the social justice movements of 2020. Whether due to pressure from internal and external stakeholders, competition for top talent, or a moral imperative, businesses are increasingly acknowledging that DEI work needs to be done. Yet, as they dive into this work, many companies fail to achieve results. In fact, some don’t even know what results they are looking for in the first place.

Where are you going, and how will you get there? The problem is that few business leaders treat DEI the way they do revenue, customer satisfaction, and other critical business metrics. As a result, they put DEI leaders in place who don’t understand why DEI should be measured this way, and even more importantly, they don’t know how. Inclusalytics: How Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Leaders Use Data to Drive Their Work provides the solution to this problem. And the solution is data.

Based on interviews with dozens of DEI leaders across industries ranging from Fortune 500 companies to startups, academia, and nonprofits, organizational psychologists Victoria Mattingly, PhD, and Sertrice Grice, MS, share how modern businesses are using data to unlock DEI success. Employing a combination of case studies, practical examples, and step-by-step instructions, they guide DEI practitioners through developing a robust data-centric approach to DEI. Treating DEI as a critical business metric is the only way to achieve sustainable long-term success. Inclusalytics helps DEI practitioners to actually move the needle by providing a roadmap for reliably gathering, measuring, tracking, and utilizing data to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion outcomes for everyone.
