“Pay me what you owe me…” - Rihanna

We all want to be paid what we are owed! Your skills, experience, and knowledge all hold value. But how do you know how you should be compensated as a DEI professional? Author and Sociologist Erin Cech says,

“ Demand the worth of your passion-driven work. Employers often exploit the personal connection workers have to their jobs. My research finds that employers prefer passionate job applicants and employees not just because they might be more enjoyable to work with, but because employers believe they can get more work effort out of them for the same salary.”

In our first annual DEI compensation study, we surveyed more than 100 DEI professionals. Sign up to learn about the insights we found.

We want to make the next report even better. Help us get better data!
