DIVERSITY IS AN
EXECUTIVE RESPONSIBILITY

41 top managers from the German economy are showing their face, and are thus committed to the demand that “Diversity must become an Executive Responsibility”

With the publication of the diversity study German Diversity Monitor , BeyondGenderAgenda in September 2020, BeyondGenderAgenda addressed four demands to the German economy:

(1) a holistic understanding of diversity, (2) definition of key performance indicators, (3) diversity is an executive responsibility and (4) the establishment of an inclusive work environment. BeyondGenderAgenda is now emphasizing the third demand with the support of 41 top managers, including 13 CEOs of DAX 30 companies.

For participation in the campaign, BeyondGenderAgenda did not review or evaluate the DE&I activities of the companies. Rather, involvement is to be understood as a public self-commitment by the respective protagonists and the associated companies. To BeyondGenderAgenda’s knowledge, the anchoring of responsibility for diversity in corporate management is a key factor for the successful transformation towards a company characterized by diversity, equal opportunities and inclusion.
