Abstract

With an increasing focus on blending employee wellbeing and cultural ethos with business outcomes, it is becoming steadily more important for companies to implement a strategically relevant and impactful DE&I program. But knowing how to create, formulate, and drive a meaningful DE&I focus is challenging, and too many companies fail to implement a strategy that will survive beyond the initial impulse. With this in mind, we re-evaluated the approach to DE&I and discovered that, at its core, the laws that govern the creation of mass in the universe can also be applied to the creation of a successful DE&I program. By approaching the issue from a scientific, rules-driven perspective, we can reshape how we approach DE&I and ensure long term success in any workplace.
