Independent DEI assessment
To help drive greater understanding and accountability for DEI across the business, in FY2023, Korn Ferry, a global consulting firm, was asked to assess our operations in four countries (China, Japan, UK and US) as well as our global DEI promotion office.
Their review provides an independent evaluation of our DEI practices, highlighting our current strengths alongside areas of improvement.
The global report found our strengths to be in risk management and the awareness of DEI, particularly in our HR compliance policies, and noted that our leaders have demonstrated a focus on understanding the reputational risks that DEI poses. Notable areas for improvement were within talent and operations integration, particularly providing business leaders with more focused support to understand the benefits of integrating DEI into operations.
Across AMIEO, based on the findings we are looking to conduct a detailed regional assessment in FY2024 which will assist in designing a more tailored approach.
" Our workforce in AMIEO is extremely diverse, which brings many experiences, perspectives and ideas. We are therefore working hard to equip and empower our leaders to bring out the very best in their teams, ensuring every employee feels valued, motivated, productive and engaged in achieving our goals. Our commitment to DEI aligns us with a more inclusive future where all our diverse talents can thrive and lead the way in automotive excellence. „
