Everyone is making commitments to change in the new year. Don't let a job change be on the list for your employees.

Many employers focus on attracting and hiring diverse talent but are unable to keep them due to the lack of proactive retention programs. Keeping diverse talent engaged and motivated is essential to retention, and building a culture that supports diversity, equity and inclusion is key, since employees who are satisfied with their organization's commitment to DEI are twice as engaged as dissatisfied employees (ADP, 2019).

The biggest challenge for organizations when it comes to employee retention is to really understand the needs of the workforce, and then to develop tangible, measurable actions to ultimately ingrain DEI into their DNA just like their employees are hoping to see.
