Proponents of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace face a significant challenge due to the incoming Trump administration's plans to intensify the anti-DEI backlash. This creates an urgent need for effective strategies to support DEI in adverse environments.
The article outlines three models for companies to consider when navigating DEI initiatives: the "When in Rome" model which accepts local laws, the "Embassy" model that keeps DEI internal, and the "Advocate" model which pushes for pro-DEI change. Each model represents a response to the complexity of implementing DEI against a backdrop of opposition.
Those who value diversity, equity, and inclusion are understandably alarmed by the potential implications of Donald Trump's election victory for DEI efforts across the workplace and society at large.
In light of the challenges posed by political climates hostile to DEI, it is crucial for organizations to engage with frameworks that have proven effective in supporting marginalized communities. The Meltzer Center provides frameworks that embrace either adaptation to local norms or active advocacy for change.
