10 Diversity Lessons for Your Team
summary
Google shares ten concrete lessons from publishing diversity data since 2014 and updating reports in 2021–22: publish an annual diversity report and track retention plus demographic counts (including non-binary) to locate leaks; set diversity as a measurable business goal with public targets and dedicated teams; run focused programs such as Accessibility Week, regional campaigns (e.g., Brazil’s Amazonia and trans visibility), a podcast (Escucha Más Fuerte) and a belonging portal (belonging.google); and treat diversity work as a long-term marathon rather than a short sprint.
