Managing a diverse, equal and inclusive workplace starts with a commitment to measuring and analysing the current situation of the organization.

People are at the heart of any business. That is why a focus on quality and innovation, supported by a diverse and engaged workforce, is key to a company's success. Diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) can make organisations more profitable, innovative and respected, taking them beyond business as usual. But for this to happen there needs to be a determination to do things the right way and a clear strategy that involves action and accountability.

The video is playing. This video is playing in mini-player mode.

DE&I is of significant value to potential new collaborators, who increasingly consider this issue important and ask about the company's policies during the recruitment process, appreciating that equal opportunities are considered a fundamental pillar of career development. DE&I is also highly valued by clients who, during the tendering process, often evaluate potential suppliers in this aspect.

What is not defined cannot be measured; what is not measured cannot be improved. 

Get to know DAT, our exclusive diversity assessment tool for companies, teams and productive projects.

There will always be challenges within DE&I, especially as a company grows. In our ongoing quest to provide our clients with innovative solutions, at Grant Thornton we developed the Diversity Assessment Tool.

This tool enables the diagnosis and monitoring of employees' perceptions regarding the company's commitment to developing a workforce where growth opportunities are directly linked to capabilities and not influenced by biases or prejudice. 

The implementation of DAT ensures diversity management based on real data.
