Diversity Management

Diversity management is the method of implementing diversity-and-inclusion strategies—also referred to as D&I strategies—to maximize benefits of corporate diversity in the workplace. Using best practices in recruitment and retention, resource groups and mentoring, diversity management enhances talent development and workforce diversity through utilization of diversity metrics and diversity benchmarking.

The most successful diversity-management practices are those with measurable results that both increase cultural competence and deliver a strong result that aligns with the company's business goals, including employee-resource groups, formal and cross-cultural mentoring programs, diversity training and talent-development programs. DiversityInc is in the unique position of assessing diversity management because in 12 years of running The DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity, we have collected in-depth data on more than 500 companies.
