Far too often, Employee Resource Groups, also known as ERGs, are often overlooked for the power they posses in being mentorship powerhouses in organizations. Sadly, many ERGs end up being “side-of-the-desk” activities for already over-worked employees or worse, regulated to checkbox activities and only activated for events related to equity-deserving months, like Black History month or Pride month. But what if we reframed how we viewed ERGs from compliance-related sets of activities into Mentorship Powerhouses where we can propel emerging leaders forward in their careers? What I would like to propose is how we leaders can set the table by creating a winning strategy for both mentorship and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.
