From Day One Atlanta 2024: How to Embrace Diversity of All Kinds in the Workplace

Panel: How to Embrace Diversity of All Kinds in the Workplace
From Day One Atlanta - January 24 , 2024

While diversity and inclusion efforts have focused primarily on ethnicity and gender, many employers are seeking to be more inclusive to all, including veterans, working parents, and other underrepresented groups. Not only can this create a more culturally rich work environment for everyone, but an opportunity to broaden the search for talent in a competitive labor market. How can companies connect with overlooked talent pools and leverage the unique capabilities and perspectives of these communities, while providing support, learning and development opportunities, leadership training and other benefits to ensure everyone feels included and embraced?
