2023 DEI Symposium Microsession: DEI Data Matters: How to Collect & Interpret Relevant Data

In this session, we will cover the basics of collecting and using data to advance DEI initiatives. By the end of the session, you should be able to assess where your organization is on its DEI data-related maturity model, identify useful tools for all stages of data and analytics and set outcomes, and identify measurement strategies for successfully incorporating data into your DEI work. 

  What challenges have you faced in starting your DEI data-related work? How did you overcome those? 

  • If we don’t have the resources for a full-time data scientist or researcher, how do we approach doing this work? 

Presenter:  Dr. Jackie Hardt, SVP,  Sr. DEI Analytics Manager
