Then the problems are further down the talent development chain - where corporations have limited remit.
A well-intentioned corporation might make sure it was not creating nor subsidizing the problem (say, dumping toxic waste in disadvantaged areas while donating generously to universities priced for the 0.01%), not tolerating stupid racism/sexism in its white male staff, and not motivating its staff to be racist sexists by exposing them to lower-bar "peers" who were selected for their non-white-male status.
