D&I als direkter Beitrag zu Ihrer Strategie
Die strategischen Prioritäten Ihres Unternehmens dienen als Richtschnur für D&I. Ob Innovation, Wachstum, Agilität oder Effizienz: Diversity leistet konkrete Beiträge dazu.
Business Case
Measuring the success of D&I (the What and the How)
How should companies measure the success of their D&I work – and which types of success should be defined in the first place? International experts met in Brussels to learn and discuss the different paradigms for measuring success and how they fit into effective D&I frameworks and communication.
How D&I contributes to successful Digitalisation while earning hidden risks
Although the trend is not new, the profoundness of the digital transformation is only about to become clearer. While most areas feel as if they had to follow (or obey), D&I should not only be seen as an object of digitalisation, but also as a driver. An overview of the two-way inter-relations.
Bias behindert die Nutzung internationaler Potenziale
Die immer internationalere Wirtschaft benötigt nicht nur Fachkräfte, sondern auch inter-kulturelle Vielfalt. Ausländische Studierende mit deutschem Abschluss wären ideal, jedoch gelingt ihnen der Berufseinstieg eher mühevoll – so eine aktuelle SVR-Studie. Eine weitere Untersuchung, ebenfalls vom SVR, zeigt: Wer ‚anders‘ aussieht stößt auf Ablehnung.
15 Years of Research and Evidence-based D&I
Hard or soft facts? Snapshot or long-term trends? Which type of information are you using in your D&I work? What counts in social media and at conferences (cool images, crisp cases, or surprising figures) might not be what helps you to take the most effective decisions.

The combination of the findings reconfirms the business case for a need to tackle Diversity, Culture and Leadership in a […]
How to Leverage Gender & Diversity in Project Management
Is Diversity naturally embedded in Project Management or does this new and hugely complex profession needs to reconsider the way it is looking at differences? A keynote at the (Gender) Diversity in Project Management Congress in the Netherlands set the scene.
Investment Funds based on Diversity Criteria
Many studies prove that well-managed D&I leads to better performance. Why not use these insights to design investment strategies? A few funds already do so and they were just joined by another one, the Solactive Global Gender Diversity Index, in partnership with UBS.
The Inclusive Power of Small Specific Improvements
Initiating concrete changes to mitigate unconscious biases and eventually make the most of differences. This summarises the ambition of many D&I practitioners. While it sounds easy, experience shows that the practicalities sometimes aren’t. ‘Inclusion Nudges’ are a collection of good practices how to steer behaviour away from bias and towards inclusion.
Wenn Fortschritt nur an Quoten gemessen wird
Während in der Schweiz eine aktuelle Studie klare Worte zum Verbesserungsbedarf in Sachen Gender Diversity findet, stellt eine deutsche Studie fest, alles sei „auf einem guten Weg“. Das Problem: Beide fokussieren auf die jeweiligen Frauenanteile im Management.
