PRNEWS: What is the first thing a company needs to do to start its journey to a more diverse and inclusive organization? Crystal Cooper Mathis: Look inward. There are a lot of organizations making announcements about million-dollar donations to diversity organizations, but when you look at their teams or leadership tables, they are predominately white. The saying be the change you want to see is tried and true for a reason...How are you broadening your hiring pool to reach qualified candidates of all races and ethnicities? How are you removing unconscious bias from interview processes? Are you paying your diverse staff adequately based on its skills? How are you creating an environment that welcomes diversity? Are you offering proper diversity training to the whole team? What about inclusion? Are you nurturing and celebrating the advantage that diverse perspectives offer?
