Develop and Implement DEI Strategies that Deliver Outcomes

Despite having a clear need and desire to become more inclusive, many organisations’ DEI strategies fail to achieve their intended results.
Developing a strategy that creates sustainable change is a complex challenge that requires steadfast leadership and buy-in, a clear vision, measurable and achievable goals, accurate alignment with business goals, and many other elements.

Symmetra works with organisations at all stages of the diversity, equity and inclusion journey providing consultant services that help them to develop clear and actionable strategies that address their unique needs and align with overarching business goals.

Reasons Why DEI Strategies Fail

DEI strategies, even the most carefully crafted, can fail to deliver desired outcomes for a variety of reasons. Here are 4 of the most common issues that Symmetra can help you to avoid:

Lack of understanding

Many organisations start creating DEI strategies without having a clear picture of their inclusion challenges and blind spots.

Over-complicated plans

DEI strategies that are too complex and lack clear, tangible, and measurable steps for achieving desired outcomes often fail before they even start.

Lack of buy-in

Successful DEI initiatives require all members of the organisation to be invested and recognise the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace.

Lack of alignment with business goals

Failure to align DEI strategy with the organisational business goals creates gaps in strategy execution and reduces the chances of sustainable change.
