Diversity vs. Inclusivity

Estelle Weyl:

Interviewing diverse candidates will not create a diverse environment. While the above organizations may have filled that diversity pipeline, that pipeline is full of leaks. Diversity recruiting is really only lip service. Work, school, community and conference environments need to be inclusive. Inclusivity in the sealant that prevents many pipeline leaks.

Many companies have seemingly made strides to create a more diverse environment and, of course, it started by striving to increase the number of diverse candidates that the company speaks with. But Weyl is right. That is just the beginning. Now these companies have to strive to create inclusive environments where anyone at all has a voice, is empowered, and feels like they are part of the team.
