Netta Jenkins, author of “The Inclusive Organization,” suggests that while organizations have made advances in DEI in recent years, political polarization and economic uncertainty have threatened to undo that progress. Jenkins joins the Gartner Talent Angle to share her advice on the current state of the DEI movement, and she charts a path forward for HR leaders. She unpacks her three “P” framework–people, practices and products–detailing how each “P” is essential to moving DEI forward within organizations. During the conversation, Jenkins also describes the often unrealistically high expectations put on DEI leaders to transform the organization, despite limited funding and staffing. Netta Jenkins is a doctoral student and author of The Inclusive Organization, listed by Forbes as one of the top 4 DEI books to read. She is CEO of AeroDEI, a DEI tool that helps organizations measure and quantify impact of their DEI initiatives through gamifying the experience for employees. Netta has been advising corporations and audiences of all kinds for years on the most effective strategies to address inequitable gaps that led to a 300k+ LinkedIn audience and played a key factor in Forbes naming her as one of the top 7 Anti-Racism consultants in the world. She has also given a ground-breaking TEDx talk "Reimagining the Workplace". Peter Aykens is Chief of Research in Gartner's Human Resources practice.
