Here's the links to the research Trang spoke about:
Data by McKinsey&Company in 2015 has shown that organisations with ethnic diversity are 35% more likely to experience greater financial returns compared to companies without.
Statistics show that people in diverse teams are three times less likely to resign (Inclusion work index 2019)
Small businesses with diverse cultural representation are three times more likely to provide excellent customer service (Inclusion work index 2019).
During the pandemic, 85% of diverse small businesses made business-saving changes like expanding their customer base or changing their pricing, while only 57% of non-diverse businesses made those changes (Federal Reserve Research)
Resumes with ethnic names are called back about 51% less than those with white-sounding names
