    Hacking Diversity & Inclusion with Decision Making

    In our debut episode of the Decision-Back podcast, Lanny Roytburg sits down with Erik Larson, Co-Founder & Chief Product Officer at Cloverpop. We talk about research that Erik conducted on what impact diversity and inclusion has on the quality of decision making. Inclusive decision making activates diversity to improve innovation, engagement, and results across the enterprise. It gives companies the opportunity to make quantum leaps ahead of their competition. And it drives meaningful change in months, not years, by focusing first on people who are already employed by organizations, using efficient processes combined with transparent metrics to do this systematically and at scale. You can find  the research in the Hacking Diversity With Inclusive Decision Making white-paper, which can be downloaded at https://www.cloverpop.com/hacking-diversity-with-inclusive-decision-making-white-paper.
