Webinar: Top Down and Bottom Up Strategies for Diversity and Inclusion

September 8, 2020 EDT @ 1:00 PM 2:00 PM EDT

A diversity and inclusion strategy is not just the responsibility of an HR department or the CEO of an organization, but the whole organization.

It is a strategy that must include a top-down, bottom-up, and side-ways perspective. Teams and managers should take ownership of the company’s diversity and inclusion strategy, continue to be actively engaged during the process, and hold themselves accountable in order to realize change.
