Why Diversity Programs Fail
Overview
Reason: programs focusing on controlling managers behaviors, which activates bias instead of quashing it
Solution : effective programs that make them part of the process, not forcing things
Problem: orgs keep relying on same old programs to reduce bias and increase diversity - these don't work
What isn't working
Hiring Tests
not applied evenly or ignore results, cherry pick what they want to see
Performance Ratings
lowball reviews for minorities and women
Diversity Trainings
negative messaging, dated advice, resent the implications
Grievance Procedures
people end up not complaining or face retaliation
How to get managers on board
Contact
make them interact with minorities and women
ex self-managed teams and cross-training
Social Accountabiltity
need to look good in front of others
Ex Diversity task force
Engagement
let them be a part of the process -don't impose
Ex mentoring
