Donnelley’s D&I efforts have been challenged over the past seven years given its numerous acquisitions and restructuring activities, but it has had consistent, increased investment in its inclusion councils and corporate executive leadership mentoring programs. It has about 36 inclusion councils that work at the site level; the firm sets guidelines, monitors and surveys them annually, shares best practices and Quality Certifies them when they’re on track. Donnelley requires all senior leaders to have a good-faith effort goal that impacts representation at their level and culture and opportunities for diverse talent. All site leaders are expected to set good-faith effort goals and cascade them through their leadership. Donnelley’s mandatory on-line training is required annually, with additional training optional by site. It is also training and certifying regional inclusion facilitators to deliver a module for employees/managers on the business case, strategic approach, behavioral expectations and impact on individual and business performance
