Why do some DEI initiatives work?
Re:think
A recipe for DEI success A lot of research tends to focus on the challenge side of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI): the manifestations and root causes of inequity. There’s been less research, however, on the solution side, on “What does it take to make progress on DEI?” So, in partnership with the World Economic Forum, we created the Global Parity Alliance, and looked for lighthouse examples of companies that had made progress, and to see if lessons from those companies can be applied elsewhere.
What we found is that there is a recipe, with five success factors as the key ingredients, for driving successful DEI initiatives—but that there is no recipe for which initiatives work best across the board. That’s because context is key. In fact, the first success factor is to gain a nuanced understanding of root causes.
Often, companies don’t approach DEI the same way they approach other aspects of business strategy. They often underinvest time and effort to deeply understand the problem they’re trying to solve. Instead, companies will launch initiatives because they saw, say, a mentorship program succeed somewhere else, and they say, “Let’s launch that here.” In a rush, often because of good intentions and an eagerness and desire to show employees that they’re “doing something,” companies might skip that step of really understanding exactly what the problem is that they’re trying to solve.
So while an early-career mentoring program for women sounds innately appealing, when you ask the company to really dig into its data, it may be that women are actually advancing just fine early in their careers. The problems are at other points along the pipeline. Perhaps sponsorship of midcareer women is more important, or perhaps the company should be looking to root out bias in the review process. The initiatives that are most successful are ones in which the companies spent the time up front to really understand, “What is the problem we’re trying to solve?” and “What are the root causes for why the needle is stuck?”
The second success factor, “a meaningful definition of success,” goes hand in hand with the first. The most successful initiatives understand both the problem they’re trying to solve and what success will look like once they’ve solved it. They have a real understanding of “Where are we today?” and “Why are we here?” and “Where are we trying to go?” This isn’t rocket science—these are the keys to attacking most business problems. But, again, many DEI initiatives don’t start with these basic business fundamentals.“Often, companies don’t approach DEI the same way they approach other aspects of business strategy.”
The third success factor is “accountable and invested business leaders.” Senior leadership’s commitment and accountability are necessary for a successful DEI initiative. And if the initiative requires changing a set of practices across the company, you’ll need a broader set of committed business leaders. Role modeling is important. This is a topic where a lot of people can be skeptical, and they need to see that leaders are personally making changes in line with the new way of working suggested by the initiative. Furthermore, leaders must be prepared to devote themselves, and the company’s resources, over time. Many successful DEI initiatives needed substantial time to get to the desired outcome. Some may not move the needle meaningfully for a year or more. But that time isn’t wasted. You’re laying the foundation to attack a complex problem that may have vexed the company for decades. And since these problems tend to be quite hard, it’s best not to try to tackle everything all at once. The “let a thousand flowers bloom” approach to DEI is a recipe for failure.
The fourth factor is “a solution designed for context.” Strong initiatives seek a fit-for-purpose solution. They build on a nuanced understanding of the starting place, the root causes, and a clear view of success, and they are strategically designed to address the issues. Sometimes this can mean launching a new effort or intervention, but often this means changing a variety of things that already exist, such as policies, processes, or learning and development programs.
The final success factor is “rigorous tracking and course correction.” Many companies don’t do this with DEI. For instance, they don’t define the specific leading indicators and ultimate outcomes that they hope the initiative will change—and thus, they don’t have the data to discuss if it’s working, how it might be improved, or if the results can be accelerated. It’s one thing to be able to cite the number of people who took part in an initiative, but it’s far more meaningful to be able to track details like “people who participated in the program were promoted twice as often as those who did not,” or “participants stayed with the company at a 40 percent higher rate.” Here, too, you need to be patient. There’s going to be a period of time where you see more progress on the leading indicators than you do on the ultimate outcomes that you’re trying to achieve. But if you stick with it and start to see a real ROI, it becomes easier to commit for the long run—and getting DEI right is definitely a project for the long run.ABOUT THE AUTHOR

• How effective leaders behave. Leaders enable groups of people to work together to accomplish what each couldn’t do individually. According to McKinsey analysis of academic literature and a survey of 189,000 people in 81 organizations around the world, four types of behavior account for 89% of leadership effectiveness. These are being supportive, operating with a strong orientation on results, seeking different perspectives, and solving problems effectively, explain McKinsey senior partner Ramesh Srinivasan and colleagues.

Why typecasting can cloud good decision making
Harmony Internal - McKinsey
Address the bias Brought to you by Liz Hilton Segel, chief client officer and managing partner, global industry practices, & Homayoun Hatami, managing partner, global client capabilities
At work and in life in general, we often make assumptions about people based on their socially defined roles, such as a parent, a manager, or a teacher. This adherence to role theory, a cognitive bias, can cloud our decision making, according to McKinsey’s Eileen Kelly Rinaudo, Tim Koller, and Derek Schatz in a new Bias Busters article from McKinsey Quarterly. We’re all unique individuals, and we have to remember that our actions and motivations can be informed by lots of other things besides our socially designated roles. Check it out for more on the perils of executive typecasting and what organizations can do to address it.

Use your imagination: A leader’s guide to scenario planning
Harmony Internal - McKinsey
Picture this Brought to you by Liz Hilton Segel, chief client officer and managing partner, global industry practices, & Homayoun Hatami, managing partner, global client capabilities
The Titanic was deemed ‘unsinkable’ before it hit an iceberg. Technology and forecasting techniques have advanced considerably since that 1912 disaster. Yet leaders still struggle to cope in a world where catastrophes are increasingly more frequent, more severe, and more far-reaching in their impact. While no organization can anticipate all disruptions, the pandemic and its aftershocks have revived the value of scenario planning, a time-honored exercise that now requires a higher degree of senior-leadership involvement than has traditionally been the case. Here are some creative ways to scan the horizon for high-consequence, low-probability events that could seriously damage your organization.
“Scenario planning is squarely back,” assert McKinsey’s Andrew Grant, Ziad Haider, and Anke Raufuss in their article on how companies should prepare for the so-called black swans, gray rhinos, and other disruptions that characterize geopolitical events today. “The imperative to lift one’s gaze and look around the corner has become key to strategy and performance,” they say, advocating that leaders develop a deeper level of strategic foresight and creative thinking than was necessary in earlier, more stable times. This may involve “reperceiving” events through multiple lenses when scanning for scenarios, as well as looking for “silver linings”—openings amid turmoil that allow organizations to operate safely and potentially gain competitive advantage. “Leaders within multinational corporations also are reflecting on appropriate ways to inform policy in a more polarized geopolitical environment,” the authors add. “An organization should . . . consider how to employ its voice.”
That’s the number of key scenarios we have developed that CEOs and their teams may want to consider for 2023 and beyond, as discussed in this article by McKinsey senior partner Michael Birshan and coauthors. Two scenarios depict a range of possible outcomes and GDP growth rates, while the third offers a more pessimistic outlook reminiscent of the economic conditions of the 1970s. Working with these scenarios can “help executive teams build shared conviction about their operating and competitive environment,” the authors suggest. “Consequently, [they can] act more decisively when it’s time to commit, be bold, and accelerate execution; or hold back, remain agile, and preserve optionality. These scenarios can help provide the foresight that can improve the odds of success.”
That’s McKinsey partner Bernardo Sichel and colleagues on how to get past the many cognitive biases that can undermine scenario planning. For example, people may base decisions on what they already know (availability bias) or assume that the future will look just like the past (stability bias). With their natural bias toward stability, leaders may tend to outsource scenario creation to junior team members or external vendors—a “problematic” situation, in the authors’ view, “because when senior leaders aren’t part of the process of developing scenarios, they are less likely to make sense of or act on them.” Rather than hanging back, leaders need to be at the forefront of scenario planning, instilling the idea of change, establishing processes to counter bias, and encouraging the habit of thinking the unthinkable.
As geopolitical risks increase, companies are challenged to plan in a continually shifting environment. In an interview with McKinsey, top executives from three global organizations discuss their most pressing concerns, which include discordant relationships among countries, the growing prominence of government affairs, widespread disinformation, and the difficulty of staying ahead of current events. One executive emphasizes “the need to make sure, both in terms of how we run our company and how we sell things, that we really do look to have resiliency and redundancy, whether that’s in manufacturing, whether that’s in supply chain, or whether that’s in R&D.” Another leader fears an inconsistently regulated internet: “One thinks about all the benefits that have been derived from an integrated, free, interoperable internet over the past 15 to 20 years, and now look at this future of one that is a ‘splinter net,’ not an internet,” he says.
Lead by creating effective scenarios.

The global order is fragmenting. How can leaders anticipate geopolitical risks?
On Point
Black swans, gray rhinos, and silver linings Brought to you by Liz Hilton Segel, chief client officer and managing partner, global industry practices, & Homayoun Hatami, managing partner, global client capabilities
• What concerns CEOs. The global order is still reeling from disruptions related to the war in Ukraine. A central concern among global CEOs we have spoken with is whether and how they will contend with additional geopolitical ruptures when they occur, reveal McKinsey senior partner Andrew Grant and coauthors. Even as boards and CEOs work to build capabilities in managing risks and developing geopolitical resilience, looking around the corner has become key to strategy and performance.
