The creation of a Diversity Council is an important component of a strategic diversity process. Effective Diversity Councils contribute leadership, creativity and effort to make the strategies and tactics a reality. A Diversity Council is a group of people within an organization who lead, advocate for, coordinate, inform, and/or monitor the Strategic Diversity Management process. Highly productive diversity councils can have a multiplying effect. Council Members can assist with data gathering, can assist in the communication process, will be involved in establishing measures, help educate employees about diversity, and continually reinforce the company's commitment to the diversity process. And, by achieving tangible results quickly, members can help build momentum for the company's overall diversity initiative.
Because PRISM has assisted so many organizations in creating and developing effective Diversity Councils, it created a special division within the company - the Association of Diversity Councils. The Association is the premier resource for diversity and inclusion council professionals, and is dedicated to increasing the impact, effectiveness and recognition of diversity councils as an essential partner in developing, implementing and maintaining a strategic diversity focus within organizations. Specifically, the Association offers exclusive member benefits including a membership network, best practice conversations, measurement tools, and various high-impact and interactive council training programs and services that assist councils and each council member to gain the competence, confidence, knowledge, skills, tools and strategies to reach peak performance. For more information, visit the Association of Diversity Council website: www.DiversityCouncil.com.
"PRISM brought focus and alignment to our diversity process and to our Diversity Council to insure that we were organized and well equipped to do the work."
