Having spent the last five years of my career working hand in hand with many of the world’s most well-known companies on efforts to advance women and diverse professionals into leadership roles, I read with interest the recent study and blog post by my esteemed colleague Avivah Wittenberg-Cox. Avivah has undertaken an ambitious scorecard to measure the progress of women into corporate leadership around the world. Unfortunately, her approach, which has become typical of approaches to measuring progress on diversity, misses meaningful and important dimensions of the path to progress. As important as it is to track progress in terms of numbers, it’s equally important to recognize other measurable, but subtler, ways diversity is making an impact on a company and its business. We should be looking at culture, climate, and especially commitment to diversity and inclusiveness of leadership, regardless of who sits at the table.
