Diversity and the Importance of Data Collection

President Joe Biden has made diversity, equity and inclusion cornerstones of his administration. Identifying the ways headway can be made into DEI issues will be paramount to these efforts, including using the best available information. 

As part of Government Executive and Nextgov’s Future of Work event recently, GovExec reporter and frequent GovExec Daily guest Courtney Bublé spoke to diversity officers from four different agencies. In this episode, officials from the FBI, the State Department, the Office of Personnel Management and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence discuss the future of diversity, inclusion and equity in the federal workforce and the ways agencies are working towards a more inclusive federal government.
