🚨 The DEI Data Paradox: Are You Collecting Information... But Missing the Insights? 🚨 51% of companies collect demographic data, but 63% fail to analyze it to understand career advancement trends. 🤯 This disconnect is a missed opportunity to identify and address systemic barriers that may be hindering the progress of underrepresented groups. Imagine this: • You're collecting data on gender representation, but not tracking if women are promoted at the same rate as men. • You know the racial diversity of your workforce, but haven't analyzed if certain groups face higher turnover rates. • You have information on employee disabilities, but aren't assessing whether they have equal access to career development opportunities. Data is a powerful tool for building a more equitable and inclusive workplace, but only if you know how to use it. Ready to unlock the power of your DEI data? Take our 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝗗𝗘𝗜 𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗻 to assess your company's data utilization practices and get personalized recommendations for improvement. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eNCqh-vB Our 2024 DEI in European Tech Benchmark Report reveals how leading companies are turning data into actionable insights: ➡️ https://lnkd.in/ezUqxi2B Inside, you'll discover: • How to use data to pinpoint where inequities exist in your organization; • Strategies for measuring the effectiveness of your DEI initiatives; • Case studies of companies using data to drive meaningful change. #DEI #Data #Inclusion #WorkplaceCulture #Leadership

🔑 The DEI Accountability Gap: What Most Companies Are Missing (and How It's Hurting Their Progress) Only 28% of companies have systems in place to hold employees accountable for inclusive behavior. 🤯 If your company is one of the 72% missing this crucial piece, your DEI efforts could be falling short of their potential. Here's why: 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗔𝗿𝗲𝗻'𝘁 𝗘𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵: Without accountability, DEI becomes a checkbox exercise, not a cultural shift. 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗶𝘀 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗽: Words without action breed cynicism and distrust, especially among marginalized employees. 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀: Lack of accountability leaves bias unchecked and allows inequities to persist. The bottom line? Accountability isn't about punishment. It's about empowering every employee to be an active participant in creating a more equitable and inclusive workplace. 🤝 So, how do you know where your company stands? Take our free DEI Scan to uncover your strengths and weaknesses: Our personalized DEI Maturity Report will reveal where you're excelling and where you need to focus your efforts. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eNCqh-vB Dive deeper into our 2024 DEI Benchmark Report to uncover the specific strategies & tips that are making a difference: ➡️ https://lnkd.in/ezUqxi2B Inside, you'll find insights on: 𝗗𝗲𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: What does inclusive behavior really look like?

👀 A great read about our recent DEI in European Tech Benchmark report in MT/Sprout. 👇 Our report highlights a critical gap between intent and implementation in #diversity, #equity, and #inclusion (#DEI) initiatives within tech companies. While 91% of firms value psychological safety, over half lack a concrete DEI strategy. Takeaways from the report: • Most tech companies in Europe recognize the importance of DEI but struggle to translate good intentions into tangible actions. • Defining clear DEI goals and strategies tailored to individual company needs is a major challenge. • Many companies need guidance on collecting relevant employee data while ensuring privacy and ethical considerations. What can companies do to close the gap? • Set clear goals and objectives for DEI. • Collect data on employee demographics to track progress. • Implement a DEI strategy that is tailored to your company's unique needs. • Create a culture of inclusion where everyone feels welcome and valued. • Hold yourself and others accountable for making progress on DEI. At Diverse Leaders in Tech, powered by Techleap, we firmly believe that DEI is not just a moral imperative but a strategic advantage for tech companies. By addressing these challenges head-on, we can collectively build a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive tech industry. Want to learn more?

Founder & CEO Diverse Leaders in Tech, powered by Techleap | ex-Accenture | MT/Sprout Inclusive Leader 2023
✨ I had the privilege of moderating an 'Ask Me Anything Session' with Sergio Panday from ROOTS INSPIRE and Constantijn Van Oranje-Nassau from Techleap at TNW Conference 2024, where we delved into the crucial topic of allyship. 🔥 The interactive conversation was incredibly enriching, as both Sergio and Constantijn shared perspectives that went beyond conventional wisdom and politically correct messaging. A few standout moments for me: 💬 Sergio suggested replacing 'allyship' with 'sponsorship.' He believes the term 'allyship' can imply that support is about helping 'the other' solve 'their' problem. In reality, the lack of equity in our industry is everyone's problem, and we all share the responsibility to address it. A sponsor uses their privilege to advance the disadvantaged, benefiting everyone. Allyship is not charity. 💬 Constantijn humorously acknowledged his apparent privilege but highlighted the most significant one: having the opportunity to connect with people from all corners of the world and walks of life. This privilege has made it natural for him to relate to others, regardless of their identity or background. By experiencing the richness and value diversity and inclusion bring, he believes it's just pure logic to want to leverage his privileges to uplift everyone and ensure no one is left behind. ⭐ There were so many gems in this lively and open conversation, shaped significantly by the insightful questions from the audience. Let's do this again soon, Sergio & Constantijn, and continue learning together! #TNW2024 #DEICoalition2024 #Allyship Diverse Leaders in Tech, powered by Techleap
