More than 1,800 companies participated in the survey in 2016. DiversityInc’s diversity survey leads to a detailed, empirically-driven ranking. It assesses performance based on the following four key areas of diversity management:
- Talent pipeline: Workforce breakdown, recruitment and diameter of existing talent
- Equitable talent development: Employee resource groups, mentoring, philanthropy and fairness
- CEO/leadership commitment: Accountability for results, personal communication and visibility
- Supplier diversity: Spend with companies owned by people from underrepresented groups, accountability and support
