Your company is committed to DEI, and business leaders want metrics and accountability. How do you support those efforts and protect the company in the face of obstacles such as addressing the impact of the pending Target and Starbucks DEI lawsuits, the recent Supreme Court affirmative action rulings, internal and external opposition, threatened lawsuits over perceived and/or actual quotas/goals, state law threats to DEI programs, politically charged work environments, and DEI professionals charged with “fixing” DEI despite being understaffed and burnt out? This session will cover all of these important topics and provide practical guidance to help your company remain committed to DEI, without undue risk.

Please join us for a networking reception and presentation.  The food will be from the award winning Majordomo!
