DEI Analytics and Thriving Businesses
Looking to future-proof and hire a diverse workforce? DEI analytics and candidate segmentation is crucial for Talent Acquisition teams to stay competitive and strengthen their organization.
The business case for diverse workplaces is clear, the studies have been shown for some time that diverse workforces not only lead to higher employee retention but also draw from a range of perspectives that demonstrably bolsters team performance. A diverse range of people in your organization positions you to build relationships and connections with clients and customers from a broader segment of the population.
Diversity and inclusion are major factors in building your positive employer brand. In fact, studies show that 42% of workers would turn down a job offer from a company that lacked diversity or strategies to improve it. Companies that are known to value and promote diversity boast an increased “curb appeal” to potential applicants, and in the current recruiting market, no one can afford to leave such a major box unchecked. Today’s candidates are aware of the benefits of workplace diversity, evidenced in that DEI is one of the top aspects influencing offer acceptance.
If your organization is scrambling to fill roles, this is a perfect time to take a closer look at your hiring process. Future-focused Talent Acquisition leaders now leverage technology to foster inclusion and segment their candidate base to strengthen diversity hiring.
Potential hires are looking selectively for new careers at diverse, future-oriented companies. With the new technologies called DEI Tech using AI and machine learning to ensure that people data is treated with the same rigor as marketing or sales data, you can bring your DEI programs into the 21st century. We built Included to deliver just that.

Data-Forward DEI is the Future
America’s workforce is becoming more diverse than ever, along lines of gender, culture, ethnicity, religion, and sexual preference. The labor pool is also getting more educated and older, with more people working well-past retirement age. With changing demographics come changing needs and awareness.
Candidates and employees are no longer willing to settle for a good-enough job or a good-enough company. They want to build their future where they know they’ll be valued for their whole selves and the breadth of their experiences. The Great Resignation, or Renegotiation, for those ready to utilize emerging technologies and data-driven thinking, is a golden opportunity to draw the top minds to your company.
To dinosaurs, this all can look like a meteor. But for those willing to adapt and pivot to new strategies and the tools to support them this is not a crisis. It’s an opportunity to evolve the ways we support and retain a workforce.
