Envisioning Our Work Ahead: DEI Focused Organizations and Leaders
What now? That is the question that many organizations, universities, and recruiting professionals who occupy the diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging space asked in light of recent national and global political developments. How can we continue our commitment to DEIB? What strategies are others implementing to advance their work? How do I remain motivated during challenging times? While we do not have all the answers to these questions, we have connected with colleagues across industry and function to answer the question, “What now?” During this roundtable, we will explore strategies moving forward and identify tangible and actionable steps for advancing DEIB.
