Learn about what Grainger tracks as key measures to identify gaps and understand the impact of initiatives, with a focus on leading indicators aligned to strategy that influence improved representation outcomes.

Given the increasing energy related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), many organisations are accelerating their ability to measure diversity and increasing data transparency as key enablers to DEI strategy.
