[QUOTE="MGibster, post: 8039764, member: 4534"] This is typical language used for a position that's expected to be an HR strategic partner and doesn't indicate that this person will be involved in narrative or creative work with their IP. We'd use similar language at my company if we were hiring a DEI manager without expecting them to have any control over our lines of business. The DEI is going to achieve the goals you listed above primarily in these ways: [LIST=1] [*]They will improve diversity through the recruitment process (internally and externally). [*]Foster an inclusive environment were people feel safe to talk about DEI issues even when challenging accepted norms. [*]Make sure the company is engaging in best practices for an inclusive environment where employees can be their best selves. [/LIST] In HR, arbitration means using a neutral third party to settle labor disputes. The DEI will facilitate discussion, but if final say on the product lies with senior management, well, that means the DEI is not an arbiter. And assuming senior management is behind this, I think the job has the potential to be highly rewarding. This position is a support role. It's going to be the responsibility of the managers to implement steps to achieve the strategic goals of the company. And it's going to be the responsibility of upper management to come down on their employees if they fail to work towards those strategic goals. When someone does substandard work or breaks the rules it's the manager who writes the employee up not HR. [/QUOTE]
