“One thing that is most critical and important is the mindset and the commitment of the most senior leaders in an organization – and that includes your Board, your CEO and your C-Suite executives to this issue of diversity” says Anna Mok, Asia Pacific Leader, Advisory, Global Lead Client Service Partner at Deloitte & Touche LLP. In this episode of CEO Perspectives, The Conference Board President and CEO Steve Odland sits down with Mok to discuss the importance for business leaders to embrace diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) and why a company’s success could depend on it. Tune in for insights on:

• Correlation with success? Why is diversity important to a company? Do diverse companies perform better?
• Getting to diversity. Are there certain forms of diversity that are more important to companies?
• DEI metrics. What composition should employers seek to attain?
• Importance of the Board. Why is it so important to have a diverse Board of Directors? How should Boards accomplish this?
• DEI in our future. Within a couple of decades the US will be a “majority minority” population. What does this mean?
