I was personally in the crossfire of a lot of holding companies’ “diversity efforts,” and they got around it by obscuring or hiding diversity hiring and spending numbers; looking the other way when existing vendors opened so-called “sister companies” and put their female relatives down as the owners (then counted those as “minority owned”); and
paying vague “diversity specialists” to give countless dead-end lectures, workshops and matchmaking sessions. All of which was dutifully fluffed out and included in annual reports to fulfill whatever shareholder zeitgeist needed to be addressed.

I can’t think of a single DEI exec who had meaningful hiring, firing or contracting duties, which tells you it was all for show.

As far as our teams have been told, the changes are in language, not in the programming or priority. Musk is targeting IPG and Omnicom already, so leaders seem to be focused on staying out of the political crosshairs and obeying the changing laws. Which is understandable, though doesn't make for a clickable headline.

Musk is targeting them? How? Source?

Third question: I’m new in the DC area, are PDMs invited to firm socials? Trying to make friends! Thanks in advance
