Estimate the Value of Inclusion
Aleria has collected exhaustive data showing that the level of inclusion of different groups in an organization impacts satisfaction, which in turn is known to impact both productivity and attrition (retention) rates.
Our Inclusion Value Calculator estimates lost revenues from decreased productivity, and increased costs from unwanted attrition, that result from lowered levels of inclusion of employees in different identity groups.
The calculator is interactive: use the controls to change any of the parameters, and see an estimate of how much money your organization is losing—or how much it could save by being more inclusive.
how the value calculator works
This calculator estimates the losses incurred by your organization as a result of lower levels of inclusion (or satisfaction) for certain groups of people. The parameters you see in the default setting are based on a hypothetical company of 2,000 people. We used a combination of available research as well as our own data. For simplicity we only used very coarse demographic groups (white men, women and BIPOC), but the calculator can be customized to include any amount of additional detail, based on available data.
The calculator is interactive: you can change any of the assumption to see the impact. For instance, you could use the data for a single division, or adjust the representation numbers, or replace the inclusion levels using your own data (if you don't have inclusion data, you can use satisfaction data).
Grow the pie for everyone
By default, the estimated loss are based on the fact that the inclusion levels of women and BIPOC employees are lower than the current level of inclusion of white men. But what if you could increase everyone's level of inclusion satisfaction? Change the Baseline for Comparison drop-down to see how much more money you could make if you had a perfectly inclusive organization.
make it your own
In this simulation we use high-level information and only coarse demographic groups, but we can customize the Inclusion Value Calculator to reflect your company much more accurately: use more accurate demographic data and other identity traits; break it down by division, location, roles, and other job-related factors; use your own inclusion, satisfaction or engagement data; use your own salary and P&L data.
If you work with us to do a State of Inclusion Assessment, you can get much more accurate inclusion data—and you will know exactly what initiatives to take in order to achieve higher inclusion… and higher profits.
Contact us to learn how to turn this into the strategic tool your leadership needs to make sound decisions about the ROI of becoming a more inclusive organization.

We are grateful to Meng Cao for his help developing this calculator. The interactive calculator was created with the cloud-based platform Grid.
