DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION, and BELONGING

TOOLKIT FOR BUSINESSES

BUSINESS GROWTH THROUGH DEIB

Welcome to our diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) toolkit for business owners and managers. We hope that the ideas presented here will provide a starting point to help your organization’s efforts toward welcoming diversity in people and perspective, equity in policy, practice, and position, inclusion through voice and organizational structure, and belonging that centers around the employee feeling accepted in the workplace.

This toolkit was originally developed by our colleagues at the Greater Phoenix Chamber in Arizona and adapted by the Billings Chamber of Commerce in Montana. As with most efforts to improve lives and support thriving communities, community and chamber leaders are quick to share best practices. We are grateful to our friends in Phoenix and Billings for allowing us to share their hard work that resulted in this document.
