ORGANIZATIONAL SURVEY
Introduction As part of its assessment process, Inclusivity conducted a survey to gauge the opinions of the employees and board members of the MFA. The following reports on the main findings of the survey. In addition to an analysis of all responses, we also analyzed the responses for different affinity groups, namely • Gender identity • Role in the organization (Board Member or Employee) The response rates for each of the groups are given in the following table:
It is noticeable that all employees completed at least part of the survey, as did most women. The response rate for board members was significantly lower at just under 48%. Given that all employees completed the survey, and almost all women, it is hard not to conclude that the survey was not completed by male board members. The survey is divided into five sections, namely • Internal Culture • Leadership Commitment • Business Case for Diversity • Programs and Services • Personal Awareness We present the most striking observations along those lines. Respondents were also given the opportunity to submit written comments on each question, and we also highlight some of the most salient comments. The following sections highlight and expand upon the main themes observed.
