Deloitte Thinks Diversity Groups Are Passé
- frgtpsswrdlame 9y agoIt seems to me they're focusing on the wrong thing. See here: “A lot of our leaders are still older white men, and they need to be part of the conversation and advocate for women. But they’re not going to do that as much if they don’t hear the stories and understand what that means.” This doesn't necessitate adding white men to these groups but rather making sure that leaders of all stripes interact with these groups.

But if it's just the usual we-care-but-not-enough-to-do-anything happy talk, I bet they'll see the same groups reform by the employees who found them valuable only unsanctioned this time.
