Inclusion: Then, Now, and Tomorrow.

Novations Group, Inc. has partnered with Linkage (www.linkageinc.com),
a global organizational development company to develop the
research report The Changing Face of Diversity and
Inclusion: The, Now, and Tomorrow, an in-depth analysis of
best-in-class diversity and inclusion practices from
leading organizations. Building on the
partnerships’ initial 1999 research report Leading
Diversity: Benchmarking Successful Practices, the current
study was designed to measure what progress has been made
over these ten years, highlight the challenges facing
organizations today and the best practices utilized to
address them, and identify the top issues that
organizations will face over the next ten years.
Study participants discussed the general evolution of
diversity and inclusion in terms of three interrelated
areas:
1.) Inclusion has become an integral part of the
discussion, with an emphasis on building an inclusive
organization where everyone can succeed.
2.) Diversity has been broadened beyond gender and
race/ethnicity to include all types of
differences—visible and invisible.
3.) A movement from an emphasis on legal compliance to
understanding the business case for diversity and inclusion
has occurred.
