2016 has been an important year for diversity and inclusion at Nielsen. Since the year kicked off with the appointment of Angela Talton as Nielsen’s Chief Diversity Officer, a host of research, events and awards focused on our work around diversity and inclusion have followed. Today, we released our first Diversity & Inclusion Report, which provides a comprehensive look back at the work done from 2015 to date reflecting Nielsen’s investment in and commitment to global diversity.
“As a data measurement company, Nielsen is committed to reflecting the diversity of the communities where we live and work and to sharing not just metrics but also insight into why consumers behave the way they do,” said 안젤라 탈튼. “We are proud to not only commemorate the strides we’ve made as a company over the past decade, but to outline our progress in the last few years to infuse Diversity & Inclusion into the DNA at Nielsen. From tracking and trending representation, retention and developmental opportunities to providing thought leadership and mentoring to diverse suppliers, Nielsen is committed to sharing the impact and importance of the population shifts we see around the globe. We also want to help our clients connect the dots between diversity, inclusion, innovation and superior results.”
이 보고서에서 강조한 지금까지의 주요 성공 사례는 다음과 같습니다:
- To ensure the entire organization “speaks the same language” and understands that diversity and inclusion is a global business imperative for Nielsen, 93% of Nielsen’s people managers in 66 countries have received foundational Diversity & Inclusion training, ‘Managing an Inclusive Work Environment,’ in partnership with a minority-owned diverse supplier.
- 2015년에 닐슨의 8개 직원 자원 그룹(ERG) 회원들은 800개 이상의 단체와 협력하여 1,400개 이상의 행사에서 5,000시간 이상의 자원봉사를 제공했습니다.
- 잠재력이 높은 직원을 성장시키고 멘토링하며 도전할 수 있도록 설계된 18개월 리더십 개발 프로그램인 Nielsen의 DLN(다양성 리더십 네트워크)은 프로그램 졸업생이 회사 내 새로운 직책으로 100% 이동하고 유지되는 성과를 거두었습니다.
- Nielsen의 인재 확보 팀은 북미의 모든 개방형 직책에 대해 다양한 후보군을 고려해야 한다는 요건을 충족하기 위해 리포팅을 구현했습니다.
- 2015년 닐슨의 커뮤니티 제휴팀은 미국 전역의 다양한 커뮤니티에서 브랜드 인지도를 높이기 위한 노력을 바탕으로 200개 이상의 커뮤니티 단체 행사를 후원했습니다. 이러한 행사에서 소비자와의 상호작용을 통해 15만 명 이상의 소비자 데이터베이스를 축적했으며, 닐슨 데이터팀은 이를 활용하여 가구 샘플을 보완했습니다.
- Nielsen continues to release diverse intelligence series (DIS) reports, including three in 2015, two so far this year on each Asian-American 그리고 Hispanic consumers, one launching later this month on African-American consumers, as well as new insights on people with disabilities.
- 2015년 닐슨의 다양한 공급업체 지출은 전년 대비 24% 증가한 7,500만 달러에 달했으며, 이는 닐슨의 전체 소싱 가능 지출의 8%에 해당합니다.
The report also outlines Angela Talton’s vision for Diversity & Inclusion at Nielsen in 2016 and beyond. This vision is built around connecting the dots between the population shifts and consumer buying power, as well as identifying products and services, with clients, that are more appealing to these consumers, thus creating favorable financial outcomes for Nielsen’s clients. The 2016 Diversity & Inclusion midyear metric report suggests this year will be incredibly successful. Racial/ethnic and gender diversity have both increased over 2015, and the rate of racial/ethnic and gender diversity in senior management outpaces the average for DiversityInc’s Top 50 companies. Additionally, the report highlights how Nielsen has been recognized for its Diversity & Inclusion programs, including being named one of the 2016 Best Places to Work for Disability Inclusion by scoring 90% on the Disability Equality Index® (DEI), being named one of the best employers for Millennials by Fortune and Great Place to Work, earning the No. 4 spot on Diversity MBA’s 2016 rankings of “Best Places for Women & Diverse Managers to Work”, earning the No. 41 spot on DiversityInc Top 50 list and many others.
“Diversity & Inclusion are crucial to Nielsen’s growth, strength and ability to innovate,” says Mitch Barns, Nielsen’s Chief Executive Officer. “At Nielsen, we have proven that diversity of talents, skills, experiences and cultural backgrounds make our company stronger, and I am proud that our company’s culture of inclusion is being recognized globally.”
