What is the Deliberate Board Diversity Project?
The Deliberate Board Diversity Project is a social purpose-drive commitment, established by a coalition of leading Canadian organizations, including Women Get On Board, Alliance Advisors IR, and Best In Governance, to transform board diversity into a clear, actionable framework that organizations can use to make meaningful progress.
Our Mission
Our mission is to foster inclusive leadership by providing organizations with practical tools and methodologies that reflect the diversity of the communities they serve. We believe diversity should go beyond representation—it should drive innovation, enhance decision-making, and foster a culture of inclusivity at the governance level.
“We believe creating meaningful change requires more than awareness; there must be a transparent methodology that empowers clear methodology and must empower organizations to take concrete steps toward greater diversity at every level of governance.”

Transforming Governance Through Deliberate Board Diversity
Staying true to diversity and inclusion, we leveraged the expertise of over 200 directors, governance professionals, industry, academic, associations and regulatory and legislative bodies from Canada. Via in-depth interviews, surveys, and desktop research, we examined modern governance practices and emerging trends shaping boardroom diversity across Canada to develop solutions that would provide boards with the practical tools they need to foster diversity.
The Tool Kit
Our initiative brings together industry leaders to redefine corporate governance through deliberate board diversity at the Board level. With a focus on gender, ethnicity, professional background, and character diversity, we offer advisory services and access to an interactive digital toolkit to empower organizations to create more inclusive and effective leadership structures.
