In addition, Catalyst surveyed D&amp;I strategists at 43 companies to learn about approaches to managing change and to evaluate organizational performance against factors identified by experts as critical to the success of change initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>Report findings revealed:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Leadership, systemic integration, change commitment, job-level impact, and behavioral support were identified as critical factors for driving D&amp;I change initiatives.<\/li>\n<li>Preliminary evidence that companies performing relatively well on most of these factors had a higher representation of
