Challenges in the DE&I Ecosystem in India

In my last blog, I had highlighted the what are the key objectives of DE&I across organisations and who is driving the DE&I agenda at India Inc. Taking the same discussion forward I would noe like to talk about the challenges that still remain despite all the efforts being made in the DE&I space.

According to nasscom report - The DE&I Landscape in India Inc., “while businesses are taking responsibility, in less than 50% of companies DE&I metrics are part of executive scorecards. Publicly sharing DE&I numbers is still more an exception than the rule. The absence of linkage between executive incentives and DE&I targets raises the question if India Inc’s DE&I commitment is performative without being structural”.

Some numbers that support this claim includes the high share of organisations which track DE&I however they don’t report the same.

Notably, as per the survey fi­ndings of the report, organizations report that report the highest representation across diverse groups have executive scorecards and incentives linked to DE&I outcomes. This highlights that linking financial incentives could give the much-needed push to the DE&I agenda.

In a nutshell to make DE&I initiatives a success we need to track it, report it and make the leadership accountable.
