If that responsibility seems to sit squarely in talent acquisition, as a participant in this session, you will be able to move from diversity on the interpersonal level to a larger systematic level. You will leave with specific methods to utilize across different parts of the organization to cultivate inclusion and diversity on a larger scale so you can manage expectations and meet realistic goals.
2. Leverage internal resources to tackle bias as a barrier to belonging (ERGs)
3. Utilize the organization’s core values to reinforce alignment with the DEI strategy (discussion of using values to hire for fit instead of skills and experience – skills and experience can be taught, people’s values and belief systems usually can’t be changed)
