The Equity Effect

The lessons from 2020 have illustrated our endless capacity for resilience, rebuilding and empathy. But they have also shown the vast disparity in opportunity, justice and economics that still prevail in the U.S. and globally. In this report, we explore various principles gleaned from living through the pandemic and establish equity, or the quality of being fair, as a leading determinant for wellbeing. It’s the responsibility of organizations of all kinds to claim equity as a strategic, grounding ideal. This report covers the five cultural shifts with which every company now needs to reckon.

Why is equity the answer?

These five shifts will affect how everyone works, whether businesses change or not. We outline key principles to get ahead of these cultural shifts and build the Post-Pandemic Organization. The shifts, starting with Accountable Action and ending in a Resilient Future, define the human-centric organization of tomorrow, specifically with an eye on diversity. Our future is asking us to share wealth, resources and know-how to create more equity in a world where people, organizations and the environments we inhabit can thrive. When that happens, there’s an exponential effect that reverberates across people, organizations and society.
