03: A Missing Ingredient: DEI Diagnostics
Manage episode 341816388 series 3396624
Do you have a clear idea of what your organization’s current DEI competency is? Are you tracking actions and results?
You can’t improve what you’re not tracking, so getting a precise understanding of where your organization is at on its DEI journey is crucial if you want your DEI efforts to be effective.
In episode 3 of A Recipe for Transformation, Chrysta illuminates why asking (and answering) questions is the first step in effective DEI work, and how understanding where your staff is currently at with DEI competence is a must in order to know what is needed going forward, and why using an effective DEI diagnostic is a non-negotiable tool in this work, highlighting:
- We can’t improve what we can’t measure; why you need to know where you want to go and where you are currently
- How a DEI diagnostic can help you figure out where your organization currently is in its DEI work, the best path forwards and what hazards and pitfalls to avoid
- How a DEI diagnostic can be a generative process rather than a stale and boring one
- The 3 questions to ask in order to begin building a DEI competent staff
- How using a DEI diagnostic will help you be sure that the training you’re investing in will actually get the results that you want
“We want to make sure that we’re doing the training and building the knowledge that’s going to help our people in the way that we know that they need to be supported. It’s kinda like when we get in a car and we turn the GPS on and we’re going to head to our next destination, but we don’t actually put in our starting address or the destination address; how would that GPS know how to get us to where we’re going? That’s what a DEI diagnostic will do.”
