China’s Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. is worth $US531 billion and has a workforce of 1 million people, but it isn’t the most diverse company in America. Amazon Inc., which is not only huge that its market capitalisation topped $US1 trillion last week, has about 993,000 employees on staff and an equal number of white collar workers as China does blue ones (not counting self-employed contractors).
The “most diverse company” is a company that has the most diversity in its workforce. The most diverse companies may surprise you.
A number of studies have demonstrated that diversity can be a huge benefit to businesses, with more varied teams producing greater financial outcomes.
Because of this, Statista and Forbes collaborated to create a list of America’s greatest employers for diversity. More than 60,000 workers in the United States were polled, and the diversity of senior executive teams and boards was examined. It also looked at whether organizations have executives who encourage diversity and if they talk about it proactively.
