Can leaders reimagine a new business normal?
While C-Suite executives broadly support Diversity, Equity and Inclusion initiatives, anecdotal evidence suggests that senior leader habits are still evolving and therefore, judgement and decisions are less likely to:

Relinquish authority and budgetary decision making to nominated DEI directors and managers to ensure they are empowered to achieve expected goals and objectives;

Allocate sufficient resources, provide strategic guidance and endorse planning;

Agree to a tangible set of DEI inputs, outputs and outcomes achievable within both cultural and commercial realities;

Willingness to disrupt leadership business as usual, deconstruct old and create a new business normal, and build a truly inclusive culture;

Roll up their sleeves and fully immerse themselves in the process of self-exploration, discovery and strategic DEI planning, action and outcomes.
