Sharing Findings: Balancing Transparency and Privacy
This lesson teaches how to communicate results from harassment and inclusion metrics responsibly. Learners will balance transparency with privacy, identify appropriate audiences, and set guardrails to ensure accurate and ethical reporting.

Purpose and Audience

Communicating results should inform learning and accountability while preserving privacy. Clarify who needs to know what, and tailor depth to the reader's role.

Privacy and Confidentiality Guardrails

Share aggregates and de-identified data. Suppress small counts and avoid naming individuals. Refer to policies that guide disclosure.

Data Accuracy and Timeliness

Publish data that is current and precise. Document data sources, definitions, and any caveats to prevent misinterpretation.

Practical Examples

  • Aggregate trends by department or tenure
  • De-identified incident summaries focusing on patterns
  • Clear actions linked to findings
