TAPESTRY Seeks To:

Businesses will have opportunities for dialogue, engagement, and training/education centered around diversity, equity, and inclusion for their employees.
These opportunities will foster open conversations, promote a deeper understanding of diverse perspectives, and provide essential tools for creating an inclusive workplace.
The creation and implementation of a comprehensive DEI initiative is crucial for fostering a workplace that values and supports all individuals.
​
By taking a proactive approach, businesses can build a culture that attracts diverse talent, enhances employee satisfaction, and drives overall success.
Appointing a dedicated employee to lead your company’s DEI initiative is a key step in ensuring the success of your diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts.
This leader will be responsible for driving the initiative forward, implementing strategies, and fostering a culture of inclusivity throughout the organization. By having a committed DEI leader, your company demonstrates its commitment to creating an inclusive workplace.
Establishing success measures for your company's DEI initiatives is essential for tracking progress and ensuring meaningful impact.
These benchmarks might include metrics such as the diversity of your workforce, employee satisfaction and engagement levels, the number of employees participating in DEI training, and improvements in retention and promotion rates for underrepresented groups.
