Making Sense of DEI Complexity, the first in our new Thinking Differently About DEI series.

In this series we explore how we can find new ways to solve the biggest challenges in DEI. This first episode looks at how we can simplify DEI to help our team make sense of the work we are doing and to use our stretched resources in the most effective way. Based on learnings from a broad range of organisations, we share:

• The challenges with how many organisations are taking a “diversity group” first approach to DEI
• A new model to think about DEI from a “foundations first” approach
• How this model can be applied with real life examples including strategy and L&D
