11:00 am Measuring Diversity & Inclusion: How Workforce Metrics Can Help You Assess Program Effectiveness and PracticesSponsored by Mercer

Brian Levine, PhD, Partner and US/Canada Leader Workforce Analytics, MercerElizabeth MacGillivray, Principal, Diversity and Inclusion Consultant, Mercer

Organizational approaches to diversity and inclusion vary across business and geography, but most companies’ efforts tend to focus on implementing certain programs and practices touted as best-in-class in their efforts to improve diversity of representation and an inclusive workforce environment. But are these “best practices” actually effective? And what are the practices that make sense for your organization? Without relevant metrics and solid workforce analysis, it can be difficult to assess whether popular and acclaimed diversity programs are actually effecting the desired change appropriate for your company.

Dr. Levine will discuss how to leverage workforce analytics to determine where diversity efforts should focus, and whether an organization’s existing programs are achieving the intended results. Ms. MacGillivray will discuss best diversity and inclusion practices that can be leveraged to address the issues surfaced by metrics and workforce analyses.
