Coqual, a global think tank, introduced its Black Equity Index, a benchmark that allows companies to track progress on Black equity in the workplace.
The results of its survey aggregate data from a wide range of industries including technology, financial services, professional services, energy and utilities, and life sciences. Coqual, a global think tank, is now making it easier for companies to advance and measure this progress. This week, the organization introduced its Black Equity Index, a benchmark that allows companies to track progress on Black equity in the workplace and improve their practices across shared principles from one year to the next.
While companies have taken the initiative to track and measure Black equity within their organizations, there are limits to only looking at internal data, says Lanaya Irvin, CEO of Coqual.
