The promise of a truly diverse, equitable and inclusive organization can be elusive
Find out where you are on your DE&I journey and get actionable insights that drive transformation across all areas of your business with the Korn Ferry DE&I Compass.
Why getting DE&I right matters
The pressure to build inclusive organizations is growing. Not just because it’s the right thing to do but because it’s the smart thing to do. Research shows that diverse, equitable and inclusive organizations achieve:
- 70% higher growth
- 36% better profitability
- 75% faster time to market
- 19% better innovation
But, despite the strength of the business case, very few organizations can say they’re truly inclusive. It’s not that diversity, equity and inclusion is suffering from a lack of attention (companies now spend over $8 billion a year on diversity programs). But it is suffering from a lack of results. So, where are we going wrong?
All too often organizations rush into building a DE&I program that addresses the symptoms of the issue but not the root cause. It’s critical to make decisions based on data and facts, not long-held biases.
Korn Ferry’s DE&I Compass provides an instant snapshot of your company’s DE&I maturity, so you can gauge whether you’re getting diversity, equity and inclusion right. And if you’re not? We help you identify potential problem areas and give you the guidance and insight you need to close the gaps.
With Korn Ferry’s DE&I Compass, you’re able to:
- Get a clear view of how you are performing across five strategic DE&I dimensions through analysis of a research-backed employee listening survey.
- Quickly identify DE&I employee experience gaps with AI-backed analytics and world-class benchmarks
- Conduct a deep-dive gap analysis for key demographics including gender, age and ethnicity, using our proprietary dashboards
- Close experience gaps with guidance from Korn Ferry DE&I experts so you know where and how to navigate your organization to the next level
What we measure for DE&I
Our DE&I Compass takes the pulse of your organization via an online employee listening survey, measuring your maturity on five strategic dimensions: Risk Management, Awareness, Talent Integration, Operations Integration and Market Integration.
And because driving real change requires both behavioral inclusion (mindsets, skillsets, relationships) and structural inclusion (structures, processes, practices), our approach incorporates both perspectives across each dimension.
