Defining the Problem
* G&W’s diversity issue stems from many internal factors.
* To name a few, a compartmentalized human resource department, the lack of mentorship programs, as well as the lack of training programs contributed to G&W’s diversity and inclusion gap.
* Both the IFE and EFE factors show that there is a problem with diversity and inclusion for G&W, namely within leadership.

Summary of Most Important Strategy
20
D&I Assessments:
* A more in-depth look into how the issue of diversity and inclusion can begin to be remedied
* Getting first-hand information, internally, from direct employees
* Preferred solution by stakeholders would be pleased with the movement towards wanting to increase a more diverse business community (Selvarajah et al., 2020).
The
QSPM supports the use of the first alternative:
Performing a D&I Assessment
TREY research
Action Plan
21
Goal 1: Secure a third-party marketing research company to initiate the D&I assessment.
Goal 2: Communicate with third-party to develop questionnaire.
Goal 3: Oversee the issuance and retrieval for questionnaire answers
Goal 4: Distribute results from questionnaire/assessment.
Goal 5: Full implementation of D&I efforts after results have been fully discussed and communicated.
