In this episode, we start with a warm, engaging introduction, featuring personal stories and recent highlights, including a Nike gathering with 30 companies and upcoming events centered on candidate experience and military recruiting.

Diane File, a research psychologist and founder of DF Analytics, takes center stage to discuss the critical role of data science in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) within HR. She outlines a comprehensive five-part framework for measuring DEI effectiveness, addressing the challenges of data collection, benchmarking, and the complexities of self-identification.

The conversation also explores strategies for improving communication and data protection in DEI initiatives, as well as the significant role Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) play in fostering an inclusive workplace culture. The episode wraps up by introducing the TA Talk Tank platform for mentoring and encouraging listeners to participate in upcoming events and explore resources available through CXR.org.
