a gender pay equity audit.
a values statement--what does your organization believe in back stage away from the public?
an HR/personnel policy that includes a standard of conduct and anti-harassment and anti-discrimination policies.
An understanding of what it costs to live in your museum's neighborhood, city or town.
Know what diversity means in your community. Know who's not at your table. Once again, hiring for social media/PR value only nets disappointment and expense.
