Getting Practical about DEI: From the “Why” to the “How”

There has been a lot of talk (and research to back it up) about the need for more equitable teams, the value of representation, and the better business outcomes that are associated with a stronger internal culture. But is the recruitment industry taking action when faced with this data? What changes are recruitment leaders implementing, and how have those impacted the bottom line?
