Desktop D&I benchmark review 

MASF recognises that many organisations have an established and comprehensive approach to Diversity & Inclusion, and based on our experience with domestic and global clients, we have found that a third-party, desktop review of your D&I vision, strategy, action plans and communication & engagement programs is beneficial to ensure it remains current and impactful. 

This can include: 

• Critique of current D&I vision & strategy 

• Review of action plans to date 

• Identify of key performance indicators/success measures 

• Assess current policies & practices as fit for purpose and benchmark against best practice 

• Evaluate the effectiveness of current communication plans and Employee Resource Groups 

• Suggest additional untapped resources, external partnerships and ideas & insights to strengthen the D&I strategy going forward (both quick wins and longer-term considerations) ​

D&I surveys/data analysis and communication 

We provide proven, bespoke solutions that align your D&I strategy with key data analysis needs. Drawing on our experience designing surveys for brands like AXA Group, RTÉ, and UDG Healthcare plc, we combine a dedicated communications plan, with full understanding of relevant legal & IT considerations, to boost survey engagement and overall impact.

We suggest six clear stages to build a successful D&I survey:

• Scope: Defining what to measure.

• Timeline: Maximising staff participation.

• Communications: Launching pre- and post-survey messaging.

• Governance: Handling legal and IT requirements.

• Reporting: Structuring and sharing the results.

• Action Plans: Turning survey data into short- and long-term actions.

To ensure a fast, easy, and secure rollout, MASF uses SurveyMonkey. As an independent third party, we manage the data collection to eliminate employee concerns regarding data confidentiality and the purpose of the survey.
