In this episode of The Flux, Les Craig shares how synthetic data + simulation help health + pharma leaders test strategies before they’re real-world decisions. Smarter planning. Faster action. Less risk. 🔗: hubs.li/Q03wnkr40 #Epistemix #TheFlux

Attempting to fix diversity by simply increasing diverse hires can backfire. Addressing the underlying workplace conditions that hinder the success of women, people with disabilities, and people of color is crucial. #diversity #inclusion

Diversity data alone is not enough. Understanding the day-to-day experiences of employees is crucial for improving satisfaction, productivity, and retention rates. Companies need to ask about workplace experiences that hinder work. #diversity #inclusion

Agent-based models can bridge the gap between individual experiences of bias and vague solutions like 'dismantling structural racism.' This approach simulates organizational dynamics to link behaviors with financial outcomes. #AgentBasedModeling #OrganizationalChange

An agent-based model simulates organizational dynamics to understand factors impacting people and links them to financial outcomes. This simulation opened doors for companies to manage DEI quantitatively. #AgentBasedModeling #DEI

Higher satisfaction leads to increased productivity and employee retention, directly impacting a company's finances. Measuring inclusion and equity, or rather, merit, reveals imbalances in promotions and compensation, highlighting losses in the P&L. #employeeRetention #equity

Diversity decreases from entry-level to executive positions. Focusing solely on hiring won't fix the systematic issues causing the gap. #diversity #equity

Agent-based modeling allows for the creation of realistic simulations from simple assumptions. Unlike statistical models that require recalibration, agent-based models expand with detail without breaking accuracy. #AgentBasedModeling #Simulation
