Distinguishing the Three Terms
• Diversity as composition, equity as process, inclusion as experience
• Equality against equity and the different interventions each implies
• Why representation alone predicts very little about retention
Evidence and Its Limits
• Unconscious bias, the IAT and its weak individual predictive validity
• Why one-off bias training shows little durable effect, and can provoke backlash
• Structural and process interventions that outperform awareness alone
Where Decisions Leak
• Structured interviews, scoring rubrics and blind review in hiring
• Promotion, pay review and work allocation as the higher-leverage points
• Meeting practice, credit attribution and psychological safety
Knowing Whether It Works
• Representation, retention and progression tracked by stage, not in aggregate
• Pay gap analysis, adjusted and unadjusted, and how each is misused
• Survey design, small-group anonymity and the limits of engagement scores
Sustaining It
• Accountability held by managers rather than delegated to a DEI office
• Legal boundaries around positive action and quotas in different jurisdictions
• Resistance, fatigue and communicating the case without overclaiming
