Each level is a different colour. It can be used to diagnose the gaps that exist within your organisation and to build your strategy for addressing them.\nEvery aspect of gender equality in the workplace is important. However, for the purpose of guiding organisations through a process, the WGEA has identified 8 core focus areas to address first. If you are at the very beginning of the strategy development process, it is recommended that you focus all of your efforts on these areas. You can move on to diagnosing the more advanced focus areas when you are ready.\nRecord your scores in the tables against each of the relevant focus areas\nTally your score and use the scorecard to get an understanding of how far along the process you are.\nYou can use this tool to diagnose the status of gender equality within your organisation both before you begin developing your overarching strategy and at any time afterwards.\nThe diagnostic process involves answering questions against each of the focus areas. Each focus area has seven questions and these questions are also colour coded. Yellow questions indicate core requirements, orange indicate best practice and blue are leading practice. Do not feel overwhelmed if you can’t answer yes to the orange and blue questions at first. Focus your efforts on diagnosing the work you need to do to meet core requirements first and then move on to the other levels.\nUsing your results to build your strategy\nIf you are at the beginning of the process, stick to yellow in order to figure out what the priorities are for your gender equality strategy. You can branch out to orange and even blue if you feel it is appropriate but you should not feel that you need to do everything overnight. Suggested steps to follow are:\nBegin with the first core focus area and look at the questions you said no to\nUse the rubric as a checklist- focus on developing goals and objectives that align with the yellow questions you have answered no to. If you feel it is practical and appropriate, move on to address orange and blue questions as well\nUse the questions, along with the data you collected and the linked resources to design good goals and objectives.\nIf you organisation has already made a lot of progress towards gender equality you might use the diagnostic tool to track your progress and also to identify new areas to address. If you have progressed to the blue focus areas and are answering yes to many of the blue questions in the other focus areas, you should consider applying for the WGEA’s \u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://www.wgea.gov.au/lead/employer-choice-gender-equality-0\" \u0014Employer of Choice for Gender Equality citation program\u0015.\nNo matter where your organisation is in the process, you can periodically return to the diagnostic tool to review your organisations progress towards gender equality. Your gender equality strategy and the accompanying goals and objectives will evolve over time.\nFocus Area 1: Strategic alignment of gender equality and business priorities\nIt is critical that the development of your organisation-wide gender equality strategy supports and aligns with your overall business strategy. This means that each organisation’s gender equality strategy needs to tailored to the different business needs, based on customer focus, market position, geography and industry dynamics.\nCollect Data\nYour organisation’s business strategy and business plans\nIndustry benchmarks and WGEA’s Competitor Analysis Benchmark Reports\nYour organisation’s strategic targets and performance measures\nSelf-Assess\u0005\nAnswer each of the following questions with a yes/no response, and score in the far-right column.\nSuggestions for getting started:\nThink About\nWhat are the key strategic objectives and priorities for your organisation?\nHow can gender equality support your strategic objectives?\nWhat are key strategic initiatives th","cbCailmjprYJA6dI","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailmjprYJA6dI","docx",89689,29,"English","# Doing your diagnosis\n## Using your results to build your strategy\n# Focus Area 1: Strategic alignment of gender equality and business priorities\n## Collect Data\n## Self-Assess\n# Focus Area 2: Leadership and accountability\n## Collect Data\n## Self-Assess","[{\"question\":\"How does the diagnostic tool structure the assessment process?\",\"answer\":\"The tool is divided into three levels—core requirements, best practice, and leading practice—using different colours.
