Resource
GROUPS
NEW RESEARCH
• Hourly Workers
• Finding Leaders
• Counting Membership
As resource groups grow in popularity ( 100 percent of The
DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity now have
them), common questions arise over their structures, their
best practices, and assessing the impact of their efforts. We
decided to explore these issues through a research project/
survey. Our findings indicate an increasing interest in using
these groups for multiple business goals internally and
externally and in having leaders from a variety of levels and
functions within the organization. BY BARBARA FRANKEL
