Diversity and Inclusion for Small and Independent Craft Breweries

This is the fifth in a five-part series created by the Brewers Association’s Diversity Ambassador, J. Nikol Jackson-Beckham, Ph.D. to help BA members in their efforts when pursuing diversity and inclusion.

The adage “what gets measured gets managed” summarizes the importance of assessment in day-to-day operations and in broader efforts to achieve long-term goals. Therefore, the efforts of organizations working toward the related goals of being more inclusive and expanding diversity should be sustained, actively managed, and accurately assessed.

In this document, Dr. Jackson-Beckham discusses why it is important to and when and how to assess your diversity goals.
