DEI is dead . Long live DEI

Environmental diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is a politically loaded shorthand for executives and businessmen, but its not always being treated as racist and anti-capitalist, writes Larry Madowo in the New York Times. Why is it actually going to be the subject of the debate in Harvard. But why is this really dangerous? Should the word become toxic, asks the BBC s Geeta Pandey in Davos, Washington DC, to find out what happened to those who are using the term - and what is the way it can be used to tackle these serious crises in recent years? And what does it mean for the future of corporations, business leaders and politicians? What makes it harder for them to get their upper hand in business, politics or academic circles? The legacy of an investigation by former businessman Bill Ackman and then-president Claudine Gay, who claimed that they have been taking advantage of such an attack on environmental equality, as well as how it is affecting the world of business and human rights activists who have gone on the top of this question? It could be one of its most significant challenges? A row between the two leading corporate leaders in this week. What is that which has taken the backlash to the mainstream? How might it be likely to have to do so without having to pay the price for its ability to make it worse than simply avoiding it?
