About this Event

Event hosted by Bruntwood I Bruntwood SciTech at Platform in Leeds

"Good intentions don't change spreadsheets. Data does."

Are we making progress, or are we just making noise? In a world of performative allyship, data is the only truth teller. This masterclass is for those ready to move from "diversity statements" to "diversity balance sheets." We will strip away the fluff and audit the real impact of inclusion initiatives using the same rigour applied to financial results. Warning: This session will be uncomfortable for those hiding behind vague promises. It is essential for those ready to lead.

· Who is this for? HR Directors, DEI Leads, CEOs, and team leaders who are responsible for results and tired of "vanity metrics."

· Why you should attend: You will leave with a proprietary "Impact Dashboard" framework. Learn how to set targets that terrify you—and how to hit them. Transform your DEI strategy from a cost centre to a competitive advantage.

Key Discussion Points:

· Output vs. Outcome: Why counting "attendees at a workshop" is useless compared to counting "promotions secured."

· The Transparency Trap: The risks and rewards of publishing your raw, unpolished diversity data to the public.

· Intersectional Data: Why aggregate "BAME" data hides the specific struggles of Black employees and how to disaggregate effectively.

· Executive Pay: The controversial but effective strategy of tying C-Suite bonuses to diversity targets.

Why you should attend: Leave with a proprietary "Impact Dashboard" framework. Transform DEI from a cost centre to a competitive advantage.

Connection to Mission & Theme:

· Theme: The definition of "Delivering real outcomes." This event replaces platitudes with hard KPIs.

· Bruntwood Mission: Supports the value of "Building a more equitable society" by proving that equity can—and must—be measured.
