DEI may be under attack, but business leaders are not retreating from the commitments they made after George Floyd died under a white officer’s knee. A new survey from the Association of Corporate Citizenship Professionals and YourCause from Blackbaud showed that companies are not wavering. In fact, 13% of them have increased their DEI commitments. Association of Corporate Citizenship Professionals CEO Carolyn S. Berkowitz says the survey “sends a clear signal” that the conservative backlash has not weakened support for DEI.
