	Description:		Over the past two years, the global pandemic, social unrest, and political turmoil have highlighted the need for workplaces to consider how societal challenges affect workers. Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is more important than ever for businesses as they work to ensure employees of all backgrounds feel valued for who they are and what they bring to the organization. But how should companies evaluate their DEI programs to guarantee they are driving real change? Steve Odland, President & CEO of The Conference Board sits down with Laura Sabattini, Principal Researcher of Human Capital at The Conference Board, to talk about DEI in the workplace. In this episode of CEO Perspectives, Steve and Laura answer the following questions and more: How can businesses fully integrate DEI efforts into their work culture? What are the different components of DEI, and how has it evolved over time? How have external factors like the labor market, politics, and the pandemic driven changes in the field of DEI? How can businesses go beyond a focus on representation? What other metrics should they track? How can data be used in a meaningful way?
