We are resolved to take action to promote racial equity.

The Dean, Senior Associate Deans, and senior staff of Harvard Business School—along with the entire community of HBS faculty, staff, students, and alumni—are resolved to take the following actions to promote racial equity on our campus and in the world.

Action Plan 

1
Make clear where we stand and where we aim to go.
2
Establish the enduring structures required for the journey ahead.
3
Attract additional Black talent to all parts of the HBS community.
4
Develop and disseminate research and course material on advancing racial equity in business.
5
Equip our students to become leaders for racial equity.
6
Engage with the broader business community to promote racial equity.
7
Hold ourselves accountable to meaningful, measurable progress.

Process 

Read the letter from Dean Nohria to the HBS community introducing the action plan on 9/23. Learn about the Task Force and community processes that produced this action plan.

This action plan is a living document that will evolve as our community learns from others and from our own ongoing efforts. Please direct questions and recommendations to racialequity@hbs.edu.
