A powerful way to support diversity and inclusion as a company is to develop D&I groups. Diversity and inclusion groups can be either company-led or employee-led groups of people who want to bring awareness to, discuss, and empower their company and individuals to approach D&I in a better way. Groups can be formal and have leads or presidents and plan to meet on a regular basis and organize events for the company, or they can be more informal with Slack or group chat rooms.
If you plan to set up a D&I group, it is ideal to have a purpose, an executive sponsor, goals for the club, and a way in which you’ll communicate with members.
