What's Inside


The Measurement Deficit Crisis

Fewer than half of organizations (43%) say aligning ERG efforts with business objectives is 'extremely important'—yet 96% report that creating belonging is a primary objective of ERGs. Learn metrics and strategies to help evolve your ERG programs beyond event-driven metrics toward measuring outcomes that demonstrate real business impact.

ERG Leader & Executive Sponsor Development Deficit

58% of organizations don’t monetarily compensate ERG leaders—yet expect strategic impact. The real gap? Accountability and recognition. A third don’t assess leader performance, 74% lack formal executive sponsor evaluation, and most rely on informal feedback. Fewer than half offer development or formal recognition. Explore support strategies that drive real results.

Industry-Specific Success Patterns
