Highlights

True inclusivity requires more than a dedicated diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) department; inclusive practice needs to be woven into every aspect of a company. This session emphasizes the importance of embedding DEI principles in all organizational operations, from recruitment to customer engagement.

Participants will review interactive case studies demonstrating successful integration of DEI in various organizational aspects and engage in group activities to brainstorm ways that DEI objectives can be infused into different departments and functions.

During this webinar, attendees will learn:

  • Group activities to brainstorm and map out how DEI can be infused into different departments and functions
  • Why it’s not enough to make DEI the responsibility of a specific manager or team
  • How to ensure that DEI principles are incorporated in all of a company’s operations
  • Tools and frameworks that assist in auditing and enhancing DEI integration company-wide
