DEI-Q

Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Quotient

The DEI-Q, developed by OrgDev.ai, is a pioneering psychometric assessment tool designed to evaluate individuals’ engagement with diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within organizational settings. This instrument is grounded in best practices and competencies for DEI, offering a nuanced and comprehensive measure of how individuals perceive, understand, and act upon DEI principles in their daily actions and decisions.

Get Started

How It Works

The DEI-Q consists of 24 carefully crafted questions that explore various dimensions of DEI engagement, including awareness, understanding, attitudes, behaviors, advocacy, and personal growth. Respondents rate each question on a 5-point Likert Scale, from “Strongly Disagree” to “Strongly Agree.” The sum of these responses yields a DEI-Quotient (DEI-Q), categorizing participants into one of five engagement levels: Unaware, Uncaring, Spectator, Advocate, or Ally.

This categorization helps individuals and organizations pinpoint specific areas of strength and opportunities for growth in DEI engagement. The DEI-Q is designed to prompt reflection, encourage self-assessment, and foster a deeper understanding of one’s role in promoting a more inclusive and equitable workplace.

Participants

For individuals, the DEI-Q offers several benefits:

  • Self-Awareness: It helps participants gain insights into their own DEI-related attitudes, behaviors, and competencies.
  • Growth Pathways: By identifying specific areas for improvement, individuals can pursue targeted learning and development opportunities to enhance their DEI engagement.
  • Empowerment: Understanding one’s position on the DEI engagement spectrum encourages proactive steps towards becoming an Advocate or Ally, fostering a more inclusive workplace culture.

Organizations

Organizations stand to gain immensely from the DEI-Q through:

  • Cultural Insights: Aggregate DEI-Q results provide a snapshot of the organization’s DEI culture, highlighting areas of strength and opportunities for development.
  • Strategic Planning: Data from the DEI-Q can inform DEI strategies, initiatives, and training programs, ensuring they are targeted and effective.
  • Enhanced DEI Engagement: By promoting individual and collective growth in DEI competencies, organizations can foster a more inclusive, equitable, and innovative workplace environment.
