If so much of the data affirms the value of meaningful diversity, why are so many leaders and institutions moving against their own sustainability interests? Maven’s approach to recalibrating organizational culture has never been about "changing hearts and minds." Instead, we focus on helping leaders cultivate organizational culture by building an equity skill set—just as we do in other areas of professional expertise—essential for creating businesses and organizations that endure in a world of evolving norms and expectations. Since the country’s supposed reckoning with race and identity, there has been a noticeable decline in investing in equity. In this track, Maven’s Corey Davis, a client J. Soto, and a groundbreaking industry leader, Doris Parent explore why organizations are giving up on equity when research shows that everyone gains from it.
