393-396
In-Person and Virtual Monday 06/13/2022 03:30 PM - 04:30 PM   Add to calendar
Competencies: Business (Behavioral), Interpersonal (Behavioral), Leadership (Behavioral), Workplace (Technical)
Workplace Application:
Attendees will learn of their individual impact of DEI and a desire to make that impact positive. 

Companies are losing their Fortune 500 status at an alarming rate and senior leaders are to blame. Sound harsh? Maybe it's time to put our egos and hurt feelings aside and take a long hard look at the legacy today's leaders are leaving behind. We'll examine studies that demonstrate the critical nature of employee engagement, the link to turnover and increased costs as well as put a spotlight on what happens to creativity in homogenous workplaces. We'll make the connection between employee engagement and diversity, equity and inclusion so that leaders can underscore their role in creating workplaces that work for all.

Learning Objectives:

  • An understanding of organizational change.
  • How work has evolved and the role that leaders play in organization failure.
  • Why leaders are failing to meet expectations and what the disconnect is between senior leaders, teams and the organization as a whole.

In-person session offerings are on a first-come, first-served basis.
