Insights instead of ideologies: While many current debates are politically polarising, a rational look at value creation and success factors takes us further. This summer, ten analyses have generated the cornerstones for a new “MasterPlan Economic Performance”.
Since the 80th European Forum Alpbach (#EFA25) successfully discussed Europe’s future, we contribute a series of analyses at the interface of business, politics and society – describing a European Future Compass as a consolidated result.
Broad co-determination, social justice, peace and equal rights for women, LGBTQ, immigrants etc. – activism has been good for everyone and still triggers resistance. The difference lies in the approach. And in the context.
D&I has grown to become commonplace in the Corporate world. Meanwhile, digital tools, social networks and globalisation have shaped the informational context. What does it mean that everybody has access to data, good practices and professional networks?
Does a coherent European approach to D&I exist and can it be successful in varying local contexts? Which are the regional factors to which D&I must be tailored in order to be successful? These were some of the high level questions that lead to an innovative European study, the results of which have just been […]

Do these studies cover, e.g., the dimensions of religious or functional diversity? The latest global business case inventory identified 181 new studies of which 50 fulfilled strong quality standards.
Annual reports provide opportunities to talk about progress and success. While large corporations do so regarding their D&I commitment and activities, they are much more modest when it comes to publishing D&I numbers.

Content analyses and evidence-based models (D&I value-chain, unconscious biases) provide particularly robust insight to understand what help to both move the needle and generate benefits.
The 50 largest corporations in the EuroZone have further increased the communication of their D&I policies and practices. This finding of the latest analysis of Corporate Reporting is particularly true for CSR reports – and for gender. An over of research results provide a crisp and clear picture.
For the 4th time, the bi-annual analysis of all Corporate and CSR reports of Europe’s Top 50 companies has been completed.
