How to Effectively and Legally Use Racial Data for DEI After the recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling striking against affirmative action in higher education, leaders might be concerned that their DEI initiatives and programs will face additional scrutiny and legal challenge. While reducing liability is a responsible move, the author cautions against letting these efforts lead to a fear-driven abandonment of effective DEI practices. To sustain DEI progress in this time, companies should focus on curtailing the usage of racial data that is the most legally risky, while taking decisive action to continue using racial data to eliminate discrimination, remove bias, and create fairer workplaces. The author illustrates how to curtail this risk, identifies five goals for this data use (to identify disparities, to remove universal barriers, to correct discrimination, to design fair processes, and to demonstrate DEI progress), and offers dos and don’ts for companies hoping to sustain DEI progress.

WorkEating Around SF: The Mostly Asian Version I had to make one last stop before jetting back home: the 80+ whiskey collection at the Beacon Grand is dynamite. This hotel, just steps from Union Square, was the old Sir Francis Drake. Home to Harry Denton’s Starlight room and Tony Abou-Ganim—one of the best bartenders I have ever know—who tended bar there for many years. So, it no surprise that the little snug cellar is home to a world-class whisky and Scotch selection. So, it is a great final stop before you head home, or to the airport, like me to enjoy an iconic slice of San Francisco before retiring for the evening.
