Topics

Part 1: Making Your Company a Magnet for a Diverse Workforce

Organizations are changing how they’re recruiting and posting jobs to make sure they don’t miss out on candidates because of antiquated biases. During this panel discussion, you will learn the dos and don’ts of recruiting and retention from DE&I experts.

Part 2: The Manager's Role in Creating Cultural Competencies

Employers working to address retention may be overlooking a key driver of turnover: employees’ desire to be part of a more inclusive culture. Nearly 40% of 1,000 employees surveyed nationally said they would switch jobs to be part of a more inclusive culture. Get into the weeds and learn from others during this discussion what your colleagues are actively doing to create social and cultural competencies.
