Well yeah that's what DEI does on the whole. It gets the workplace hiring people based on their skills. You're very close to getting it.

So it's HR then?

Basically yes. But it's like asking "what does a Revenue Ops team even do? Just sell the product" "We do" "So it's basically sales then"

In a mature organization though you can't just click the "make a sale" button
