In 2012, we released the first edition of The Global D&I Tipping Point, a report that explored how events and issues of the time impacted trends in D&I, and provided practitioners with actionable recommendations for developing inclusive strategies and practices within their organizations
Earlier this year, we released the 2016 edition of The Global D&I Tipping Point which expounds upon the trends included in the 2012 report and includes new trends inspired by current events from across the United States and around the globe. We take a closer look into events and recent legislation that impact the LGBT[QIA] community. We also expand the “Women Rule: The New Global Gender Reality” trend, to include data and analyses around the unique experiences of women of color. New to the report is a discussion on how organizations are naming D&I, and the pros and cons of a focus on I&D versus D&I. We end the report by highlighting trends in how organizations are innovating at the intersection of diversity, inclusion, technology, and collaboration.
Over the next few weeks, we’ll be writing a series of posts that revisit and highlight some of these trends, and discussing strategies for addressing them within organizations:
- The Innovating at the Intersection: Diversity, Inclusion, Technology & Collaboration
- D&I, I&D or Something Else?
- The New Global Gender Reality/Exploring the Experiences of Women of Color
- Religious Diversity: Beyond the Protestant Ethic
- LGBT[QIA]: Emptying the Closet
