Scott Beth, Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer of Intuit, started his career in finance and procurement but says this position is the best job of his life. In this interview Scott shares some interesting research. 61% of people hide some part of themselves from those they work with and it takes a tremendous toll in terms of energy and time. Scott notes that straight white men are not immune, 45% of them report “Covering” at work too. This is one of the human impacts of not being inclusive and it is a huge drain on people and productivity. Intuit has an interesting innovation model and he applied it to the Diversity and Inclusion role when he stepped into it allowing him to partner company statistics with real stories of people’s experience. Intuit leadership team sets the “Tone at the Top,” with monthly metric reviews of where they stand. 1/3 of the Board of Directors, 1/3 of the executives, and 1/2 of the CEOs staff are women. Their percentage of women technologists has risen to 30% during Scott’s tenure.
