The Best Way to
Foster DIVERSITY - to INCLUSIVELY impact performance success.
...enabling your organization AND every individual to thrive!
What's the BIGGEST MISTAKE most leaders unknowingly make to foster diversity - that causes them to waste money,
disengage their people and slow down productivity?
Over the last 20+ years, I've helped thousands of organizational leaders recognize what it takes to reduce bias and sustain psychological safety among their diverse team members...
in ways that promote active engagement in increasing performance.
I've worked with businesses in almost every niche - and for any sized team.
Banking, Healthcare, Professional Services, Hospitality, Government Agencies, Non-Profits, Equity Funders, Entrepreneurs - and more.

There's one MAJOR THINGthey all had in common when it came to their D&I activities
The one thing that was the difference between...

The One Thing was...
Targeting
Diversity to impact DAILY PERFORMANCE.
Yes.
Ok... Right now, maybe you're thinking,
"Not me. I always have the business case in mind!"
Here's how you know for sure.
Yes.
Ok... Right now, you're thinking,
"Not me. I always have the business case in mind."
Here's how to know for sure.
You have a targeting problem, if:
You measure Diversity using mostly lagging indicators like recruiting headcount - or idealistic measures like engagements surveys and culture assessments
You help your people understand more about themselves and others using psychometric tools that assess their personality, core values or character traits
You describe Inclusion primarily in terms of promoting a 'sense of belonging' for every individual, promoting a culture in which everyone gets along
Fostering diverse teams based on WHO they are is not enough...if they don't also know HOW to target their diverse mindsets to engage in performance goals.
HOW you BELIEVE diversity is targeted to impact performance is
leaders make in their attempts to inclusively foster diversity.
leaders make in their attempts to inclusively foster diversity.
Why is that?
I'm glad you asked!
You see, the reason targeting your people's diverse mindsets to impact performance is such a difficult thing to do... and why so many leaders are left to rely mostly on hope and optimism... is because they simply don't know what they don't know...
Meaning...
They don't link individuals' diverse mindsets directly to inclusive daily performance - to promote a sense of belonging on the team AND for their unique contribution to organizational performance.
They don't know exactly what their people need to know about themselves and others to reduce bias and to promote greater levels of fairness - ESPECIALLY in times of rising pressure.
They don't know how to map the collective mindsets of their diverse team to predict personalized learning paths and diversity recruiting activities to fit the next phase of their organization's performance.
Unfortunately, the sustainable effectiveness of your D&I activities - and how bonded your diverse team may feel - is limited by the knowledge and expertise you have in those 3 areas.
The other BIG PROBLEM, and perhaps the MORE SERIOUS PROBLEM, is that most leaders take the wrong approach to targeting their D&I programs for performance success.
These pop-up experts are telling leaders....
If we add another buzzword (like 'Equity') to D&I, your DEI activities will make more sense - and finally work...
If people are aware of their biases - they will be able to break through them every day, with every person at work...
When people share their 'story' with others - they will feel more a part of your team...
Onboarding new hires by asking them to aspire to your ideal cultural norms - will enable them to be themselves...
When you have the headcount to meet your needs, your team is inclusive - because they decided to join your team...
The approach most leaders wrongly take is what I call the "World Peace" approach to targeting...
They focus their diversity metrics mostly on things like gender, race, sexual orientation, etc...
They use personality or values-based assessments to bond people around similarities, intended to improve relations...
They use employee resource groups (task forces) and engagement surveys to summarize every person's needs...
They provide safe spaces for people to air their grievances or to point out the potential for unfairness in team practices...
You see, most leaders think of targeting DEI to bring better business results as one-dimensional.
They believe that if they do everything they can to get lots of diverse people to get along better... that those people will also magically(?) get to work better together, as well.
This is a big mistake.
All of the above activities are
ONLY A PART OF THE SOLUTION
if your goal is to enable personal AND organizational well-being.
They work if you're really, really REALLY lucky - that your people feel good being a part of your team - AND work well together for more than a little while.
They work if there is no added pressure rising in your workplace that stresses people into becoming disengaged in the work they're doing.
They don't work if you're interested in leading an organization that thrives...
for the impact of every thriving individual - every day.
Leveling the playing field to equitably foster Diversity...
Reducing bias for the psychological safety that enables Inclusion...
Increasing performance that leads to successful Organizational results...

6 Pillars of Organizational Justice
to sustain Inclusive Diversity
With Inclusive Diversity...
1
Individuals can feel a sense of belonging in every aspect of their daily performance goals - AND with their team.
2
People can move beyond their blind spots and team biases in performance for more transparency and fairness.
3
Leaders can map the collective mindset diversity measures to predict personalized development and diversity recruiting needs to sustain effective inclusion in future performance - including through rising pressure!
This is absolutely what's been MISSINGif you want to sustain DEI, rather than simply hope you can attain it.
If you're reading this and realizing that everything you've done to date is not enough... Don't worry.
You've done great things to get yourself (and your team) here.
I have a simpler, more measurable way.
I start my clients off with 3 Key Pivots to Lead Beyond Bias...
To target your DEI efforts to achieve success, you just need to 'start from the other side'.
Let me explain...
When we bring in Diversity to our teams
and THEN work on Inclusion, we risk retention, productivity AND $$!
Diversity is good for your Organization.Inclusion is hard for people.
I guide my clients to target their DEI efforts DIRECTLY to daily performance - by 'starting where they are'.
I show them what it takes to:
1

3
Organize your existing teams around effective Inclusion
Charter complementary working relationships, targeting their diverse mindsets to engage in performance success
Predict how to lead / recruit / develop your people using specific tactics to express their valued contribution to performance and as a team member

Who am I and why should you believe me?
Hi, I'm Pam!
I started my career as a banker, and then did graduate studies in Corporate Behavioral and Positive Psychology. This sits me squarely at the intersection of business and behaviors. Always.
At the University of Pennsylvania, where I studied Positive Psychology, my graduate thesis validated an impactful process I call 'Inclusive Diversity'. Built upon the foundation of the 6 Pillars of Organizational Justice, Leadership Beyond Bias can be sustained! These cutting-edge mindset diversity measures enable both organizations AND individuals to thrive.
I've lived and worked on 3 continents, for more than 2 decades - and I've served on the WSJ Task Force on Women in the Economy, with UN Partners, as a member of the Global Summit on Women and as faculty to the Thought Leadership Institute for Talent Management...
I'm also a published author, a keynote speaker, a widely-read blogger, a sought-after coach / consultant and an intentional ally.

My methodology is based on my purpose statement and company vision:Finding New Ways the World Works When People are Authentic.
Now that I have your attention, Let me ask you... Do YOU know:
HOW to link every aspect of your organizational vision directly through your DEI efforts? Every policy, process, function, and strategy affects or is affected by DEI. Even your social impact!
HOW to move beyond 4 levels of bias that are breaking down your business? Every HR/OD activity needs to link from people to performance, and your DEI outcomes can be the bridge.
HOW to combine 12 specific mindset measures with your other tools and assessments? Mindset diversity measures are complementary to traditional psychometric tools and have 3 add'l validations.
HOW to aggregate team mindsets into company-wide 'Authentic Culture' models? Individuals can thrive when they are able to work closer to their 'instincts'. And bias can be reduced in feedback.
HOW to sustain Inclusive Diversity through the negative impact of rising pressure? When people thrive, they have the resilience to mitigate stress and to predict what they will need to sustain that.
HOW to make 3 pivots to predict diversity recruiting and developmental goals for future performance? Using the mindset measures well, people can predict specific HR/OD needs.
If you answered NO to any of the above questions, then you might want to keep reading, so today can be the last day that happens to you.

“In less than a day, the [Inclusive Diversity Models] uncovered more about our tendencies, habits and go-to strategies under stress than we were conscious of – in real business context.
The immediate tweaks for this deeper awareness showed up in nearly every aspect of our strategic goals and our development needs. This kind of awareness is critical in prompting thoughtful and intentional positive change, and it very obviously gives deep insights to managing the pressures that cause stress.”
