Talent Pipeline: workforce breakdown, recruitment, diameter of existing talent, structures
Equitable Talent Development: employee resource groups, mentoring, philanthropy, movement, fairness
CEO/Leadership Commitment: accountability for results, personal communications, visibility
Supplier Diversity: spend with companies owned by people from underrepresented groups, accountability, support.
