Nova's ERG Charter / Leadership Toolkit

ERG Charter

A successful DEI Committee or Employee Resource Group starts with a DEI charter, which must be tailored to your organization's specific objectives and infrastructure.  

Generally, a charter document will be a resource for members who are interested in joining a DEI Committee, want to consider forming a new DEI Committee, or for reference on new rules and processes as they are introduced.  

The Charter can include:

  • DEI Committee/ERG purpose
  • DEI Committee/ERG philosophy
  • Community organizing principles
  • Benefits of an DEI Committee/ERG (to the member and the business)
  • Process for role selection
  • Role outlines
  • Organization support structure
  • How we work together
  • Measurable impact:  framework for initiatives
  • Policies & practices
  • Relevant processes
