Real Talk About Where We Are and Where We (Maybe) Want to Go. DEI is rapidly becoming a taboo topic. We are already experiencing tremendous resentment and resistance to equitable and inclusive actions. In this session, we discuss why corporations need to continue to assess current policies and adapt to changing workforce needs and demands. Additionally, we focus on how to be an inclusive leader/employee using interactive real-world examples.

Too often individuals complain about what is wrong with the company and this negativity gets traction. What is going on?

“I didn’t mean it.” “Anyone who knows me knows I don’t have an X (racist, sexist, homophobic…) bone in my body.” Language matters. Intention matters. Many people are stating they don’t know what to say anymore because they are afraid of getting it wrong. NOT TALKING IS WORSE! In this session, we unpack the lingo and provide real-world examples and solutions.
