A lot changed in 2025. This snapshot captures what the data revealed about trust, belonging, and leadership, and where work remains.

DEIB didn't end in 2025, but it's changed
One-page infographic titled ‘By the Numbers: What 2025 Taught Us About DEIB.’ It highlights stalled representation, the link between belonging and performance, trust erosion from unclear communication, leadership consistency as a key retention factor, and shows that DEIB succeeds when embedded into leadership behavior, systems, and decision-making rather than treated as a standalone program.

Trust is the real productivity tool, and it can’t be automated.
Leaders don’t mandate trust. They earn it through consistency, clarity, and connection.

Trust transforms groups into teams and teams into communities.

When people stop protecting themselves and start trusting one another, performance accelerates.

Great leaders listen for meaning, not words.

Culture is shaped in the moments where people feel seen, understood, and supported, even when they don’t have the perfect language for what they’re experiencing.

AI isn’t overwhelming people; the pace and uncertainty around it are.

📊 61% feel overwhelmed
📊 84% want transparency
📊 47% say AI increased workload
📊 Only 19% have a clear AI plan
⚡ Teams with high trust perform 3.5× better

#CultureByDesign #FutureOfWork #AI #Leadership #TheHumanGap
A one-page infographic titled “By The Numbers — The Human Gap Edition.” The graphic presents statistics on the human side of AI transformation in the workplace. It highlights five key data points: – 61% of workers feel overwhelmed by the pace of change (Microsoft, 2024). – 84% of employees want transparency about how AI will reshape their roles (PwC, 2024). – 47% report their workload increased after adopting AI tools (Deloitte, 2024). – 19% say their organization has shared a clear AI plan (Gartner, 2024). – Teams with 3.5× higher performance have strong relational trust (Harvard Business Review). Below the statistics, three insight boxes summarize the core themes: The Trust Crisis, The Workload Paradox, and The Trust Advantage. The bottom section lists four leadership actions: communicate relentlessly, acknowledge the paradox, invest in relationships, and measure what matters. The design uses navy blue typography and minimal icons on a clean white background.
