The Return on Investment of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion

Despite decades of pressures from racial and social equity groups, US corporations have for the most part made only slow progress toward baking Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion into their business plans, according to panelists Eric Darrisaw, Principal, Lazarus Advisors, a boutique advisory firm focusing on Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG), human capital management, and DEI; Marvin Owens, Chief Engagement Officer, NAACP Impact Shares; and Rene Redwood of Redwood Enterprise, a corporate strategic planning and human capital advisor with a focus on DEI.

This show addresses why US companies in general have made little progress in creating fully inclusive cultures and marketplaces and how organizations can benefit through an ROI-based approach to DEI.
