Companies are devoting more attention and resources to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) than ever before. Measuring the impact and the pace of progress is crucial in this journey.

The Avtar Group, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) consulting company, announced the top 10 companies featured in the Most Inclusive Companies Index (MICI) that recognises inclusion intent that transcends all diversity dimensions.

For 2021, the list includes Accenture, Citi India, Cushman & Wakefield, Deloitte, EY, IBM, Mastercard Incorporated, Pegasystems Worldwide India, Target Corporation India, and Tech Mahindra. In this conversation, Avtar Founder Dr Saundarya Rajesh talks about the soul-searching companies did to examine biases, how Covid has been a true ally to LGBTQ+ communities in creating inclusive workplaces, and the importance of remote work in offering women the much-needed flexibility to advance in their careers.
