A strong DEI group can be an asset to certain types of large organizations. They can reduce legal risks related to compensation, retention, training, and hiring.

Like most functions in a large corporation, it cam provide value if good people work in it...

Exactly. They vary from company to company, but can be valuable when done well.

It’s a token position that holds no true purpose but to further divide.

It’s a tactic to stave off the frivolous lawsuits from the victimhood branch. Hire one of the victims and surely he can reduce some of them. If you are versed enough in DEI attain a position in a company overseeing it, you have spent your life believing in victimhood.

That isn't necessarily true.

It's a committee of 3 with our head of HR (who is our head of DEI) and our accountant. Logs say we meet monthly.

I wasn’t saying I didn’t believe you. Do you own the company? So from your previous post it sounds like someone that got raped and now carries a gun, mace, and an air horn. I get it.

It's not only that, we have clients that review our DEI program and policies. Even had to figure our carbon footprint and write a policy and plan on how to reduce it, have to submit annual reports on progress to one.

The virtue signaling is getting out of hand with a lot of big corporations.

Well I don’t know you and will probably never meet you but am sorry to hear of your experience.

The heavy handed nature of government has spread to the corporate world as well as found power via NGOs.

IMO it's more of the oversaturation of masters degrees and the time these kids spend in school. They spend 5,6-7 years in college then get a job and have no experience, no time on the floor, no time actually producing revenue, no time actually managing so how do they stand out? They come up with BS and the rest of their over educated and under experienced peers all nod and say "great idea".

That is some of it for sure.

But that part in and of itself isn’t evil, just ignorant and naive. There is another component of this that is delivered with evil intentions. The desire to steal and grab something that isn’t yours.

A buddy of mine works where they moved their Good Friday holiday to “juneteenth”. It really brought everyone together.

Because today's primarily younger workforce expects these programs. It's part of their decision-making process. I know that of which I speak. Now, does it it make a difference to folks working in CFA restaurants? Doubtful. But corporate roles? Different deal.

I'll admit DEI programs don't make sense for every industry. But I can assure you they are important in the professional services industry where human capital drives the machine. Tech is another industry where it is expected by the workforce.

And why do young people expect DEI programs? They’ve been conditioned.

(d)iversity is an incredibly powerful tool.
(D)iversity is an absolute corporate sham.

One is about divergent thought bringing about better products and services.
The other is about ensuring the corporate photo looks inclusive.
