Which industries do we feel are making the most strides in terms of inclusion? Dark horse that I think is at the front of the pack: Entertainment.

For entertainment industry, do you mean the pandering rules about underrepresented ethic groups to be nominated? That's two steps backwards for DEI, as we are now setting up requirements for classifying people to signal virtue - rather than using the qualifications of the applicant as the primary hiring driver. As a member of an underrepresented group, I want to be hired on my merits, and not be reduced to a token hire to check the box. Long term, this does more harm than good for POC.

Tech and finance often steal the spotlight when it comes to DEI efforts. Tech boasts its Silicon Valley diversity initiatives, and finance touts its commitment to breaking down gender barriers on Wall Street.

I’m interviewing for a newly created position, Assistant Director of Communications & Outreach in my organization’s DEI office. This is the first interview they have requested after reviewing my writing sample. They didn’t say who specifically I would be interviewing with, but said “members of the DEI staff”, and it will be virtual.

I'm in desperate need of tips to get genuine buy in from our predominantly white, male senior leadership to create a more inclusive environment. As is often the case, middle management and below is very diverse and then at Director+ it gets much more homogeneous. So far any real initiatives get shot down in favor of performative actions to post on SM. Is this just how it is, or can we try something different?
