McKinsey's fourth report in its series on the business case for diversity reinforces the idea that companies that invest in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives are more likely to outperform those that do not. Integrating DEI into the DNA of an organization is not only socially responsible but also a sound business strategy. Companies that prioritize DEI in their decision-making are better positioned to foster an inclusive and dynamic culture that attracts and retains diverse talent, anticipates emerging trends, and connects with broader audiences.

The development of a corporate DEI strategy is essential for guiding these efforts. Such strategies typically involve both overarching themes that apply to the entire organization and specific plans tailored to the needs of individual departments. This dual approach ensures consistency while allowing for flexibility, enabling teams to address their unique challenges effectively.

To be effective, however, companies must approach DEI with the same level of detail and analysis as they do other business functions. This includes understanding the connections between DEI initiatives and business outcomes, which helps make the case for DEI as a driver of innovation and growth, not just checking the boxes.

Integrating DEI in some industries, like the arts and publishing, is sometimes easier said than done, and the recent backlash against DEI in the business landscape is taking a toll. In response, some companies are doubling down on their DEI efforts, while others are pulling back. Yet, for those willing to endure the scrutiny, committing to DEI as a business practice can be highly rewarding. It reaffirms a commitment to people and community and organically strengthens the bottom line as consumers and employees are drawn to companies that align with their values.

In this episode of The New Mainstream podcast, Kimberly Ayers Shariff, Executive Vice President of Strategy for Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Penguin Random House, makes the business case for DEI as a long-term strategic imperative.
