I’m a tall white middle aged dude living in the US, so I am probably not the best person to comment. But to me DEI is mostly window dressing.
I agree with OP that companies should have policies around this, but they should be aimed at being quietly effective, not something to trumpet in the quarterly corporate report.
And emphasis on “effective”.
If we fold in environment and governance, I see too many companies doing things like planting a zillion trees to show their environmental savvy - which in reality are unfortunately, saplings which are eaten by deer within a few months and end up being a net loss to the environment.
