    Hardly. Statistics show very little regarding accomplishments. And in some cases have led to regression because the programs are poorly designed.

    And that poor design is on purpose. They often push responsibility on the workers. Who have no agency to bring about actual change. While insulating owners/executives from lawsuits.

      I don’t think the poor design is on purpose. They just literally don’t know what they’re doing. It’s not like they could have chosen from the centuries of DEI curriculum work, and they chose stupid systems out of malice. They’re making it up on the spot. And it’s poorly designed, hamfisted and patronizing. So let it die.
