The Next Evolution of DEI

In a rapidly shifting cultural and political environment, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives are under increasing scrutiny. Organizations often find themselves in a defensive posture — focused on risk mitigation rather than innovation. This reactive stance can lead to inconsistent or short-lived DEI efforts, risking confusion among employees and candidates and negatively impacting the organization's employer value proposition (EVP) in terms of talent attraction and retention outcomes.

However, this moment also presents an opportunity to sharpen, clarify, and elevate DEI efforts in ways that directly enhance talent strategy and business performance.

This webinar introduces the concept of “durable DEI” — an approach that reframes DEI as integral to a business-aligned talent strategy rather than a standalone initiative. Instead of reacting to external pressures, organizations can proactively embed core, universally valuable talent practices that drive long-term success while also fostering more diverse and inclusive workplaces.

Attendees will hear about:

• The evolving landscape: Learn why organizations are reexamining and refining their approach to talent management.
• Key talent practices that are always good for business: Widen talent pipelines, ensure rigorous and fair talent assessment, and foster inclusive cultures that enhance performance.
• TalentNeuron data and insights that can help: Discover how we can provide the strategies and analytics needed to optimize these core talent practices, ensuring organizations attract, develop, and retain the best talent in a measurable and strategic way.
