Otherwise, money is left on the table: African Americans make up a $1.2 trillion market, Hispanics $1.7 trillion, women control 70-80% of consumer spending, and by 2020 people with disabilities will comprise a $1 billion global market. The economic 'why' has been firmly established, what about the 'how'? How are our business leaders--who are less likely to claim minority status--supposed to be able to adapt?It's easy to see missteps once a product goes to market--cue Prada's minstrel "Pradamalia" monkey, smart watches that can't monitor the heartbeat of anyone with dark skin, Oculus Rift's outsized nausea side-effect in women, Bloomingdale's holiday ad celebrating criminal assault instead of the season--and you quickly realize who wasn't in the room when decisions--be they concept, product, marketing, etc.-- were made.
