What “diversity and inclusion” means at Microsoft
Posts like this seem reactionary and equally anti-intellectual.  Sure I know that a lot of the DE&amp;I stuff is frustrating for people.  But it seems like if you really want to dig into this you need to take broader approach.  Can you actually prove that people are in any way capable of measuring merit, especially for leadership decisions, which is pretty squishy to begin with?  It seems to me like throwing some extra diversity into an already squishy process is the least of your worries.<p>They mention an increase of from 3% to 5% of membership of senior black leaders.  Do I think those senior black leaders earned it?  Probably.  For certain levels of leadership probably 50% of leaders qualified for the position are ready, 20% are exceptional and 5% will be promoted.  Better this than promoting the CEO&#x27;s nephew.
