Monitoring and evaluation 

Your action plan should have clear milestones to achieve your objectives that you need to review on an ongoing basis.

As a minimum, this should be done annually in line with your organisation’s annual business planning process, to ensure that you are still on the right track. At this stage you will:

• review where you are against your action plans and overall objectives and update key internal stakeholders on progress, recognising the organisation’s achievements
• revise existing plans or develop new ones as required, depending on where you are now
• get internal buy-in and start the implementation process for your plans 

Your diversity monitoring will be a key tool in this process. You may also want to revisit different sections and supporting tools in this guide and continue to ask yourself and your organisation: 

• Where are you now?
• Where do you want to get to?
• How to get there?
