To underscore its commitment in this area, the company announced that it expanded its D&I leadership team with the appointment of three senior-level executives responsible for overseeing initiatives in the year ahead. While D&I has always been a focus for our organization, the events of 2020 furthered our commitment to purposefully maintain momentum of Consilios initiatives to foster a diverse and inclusive workplace, said Andy Macdonald, CEO of Consilio. We are encouraged by our progress on some of these most critical issues, but theres still significant work ahead as we set our ambitious goals for 2021 and continue to focus on sustaining a culture of inclusivity. D&I Highlights from 2020 The report explains key initiatives undertaken in 2020 and details performance against goals, including: Increasing Workforce Demographics - The report provides an overview of Consilios workforce demographics and its progress on collecting more and better demographic data. The company reported the following data regarding those employees who self-identified their diversity dimensions: Improving Inclusion Survey Results - Consilio conducted a two-phase survey of employees about workplace inclusion to assess their views on culture, first in May and then again in December. In May, the survey showed that 81% of employees responding felt that Consilio was inclusive, which increased to 85% in December. When polled on whether they felt personally included in their workplace at Consilio, 77% reported feeling that way in May, which increased to 81% later in the year. Expanding Recruiting Pool of Diverse Applicants - To strengthen the companys recruiting and hiring process, Consilios HR team rolled out two new recruiting platforms with the goals of broadening recruitment sources and attracting a more diverse pool of applicants. The new platforms will enable Consilio to tap into a network of more than 15,000 community organizations and promote job opportunities to a more diverse pool of candidates. Creating Employee Affinity Groups - Consilio formed an Affinity Group Steering Committee to help strengthen the sense of inclusion at the company and promote workplace diversity. Using input from internal employee surveys and following best practices, the Committee oversaw the launch of four affinity groups focused on Black employees, womens issues, multi-cultural workforce issues, and health & wellness. Continuing to Invest in Local Communities - Consilio was able to continue its tradition of financial contributions and sponsorships to organizations that work to advance diversity and equity, and to serve the disadvantaged in the communities where their offices are located. This year, Consilio supported more than 40 mission-driven organizations. Looking to the Year Ahead The report also outlines key D&I focus areas for Consilio in 2021, including: Analyzing Workforce Diversity Data - Consilio will expand its analysis of the diversity demographics of its workforce to better manage progress towards diversity goals.
