Webinar Recording: Are We There Yet? Practical Cross-Departmental Collaboration for Inclusion and Diversity Success
About the Program
Cultivating inclusion and improving diversity is a team sport. The work of inclusion and diversity is about culture, talent development, recruitment, partnership with clients, leadership involvement and much more. Organizations that are successful in their efforts integrate inclusion and diversity into the DNA and business of the organization. This panel will discuss practical ways in which talent development, recruiting, marketing and communications and inclusion and diversity teams work together to effectively increase diversity and improve inclusion, equity and belonging within law firms. We encourage you to attend and apply how this should work for all organizations. This is a must hear for those leading diversity and inclusion efforts, leaders in organizations, and those who are interested in driving change in their organization.
