DEI Benchmarking
See how your DEI work measures up, against your industry and against the best.
Benchmarking shows where your diversity, equity and inclusion work is ahead, and where you have room to grow.
You leave with practical recommendations, not just a score.
Two yardsticks
We measure you against the organisations you compete with, and against what the best in the world are doing.
Against your competitors
We gather and analyse data about your organisation and its competitors. You see clearly what is working well and where there is room to improve.
Against global best practice
We compare your DEI activity with top performers worldwide, using frameworks such as the GDEIB alongside other tools, for a complete view of your progress.
Measured against a global standard
Among our tools is the Global Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Benchmarks (GDEIB), a global framework for DEI practice. GDP’s CEO, Farrah Qureshi, is a key contributor to it, so you are measured against the highest standards.
How it works
Every benchmark is tailored to your context and goals.

An internal assessment and one-to-one interviews with key stakeholders show us your current DEI work and where you want to go.
