Future Now Leadership Series

Elevating Inclusive Leadership for the Long Run

Building DEI Programs that Endure

Date: Wednesday, November 13, 2024
Time: 12:00pm - 1:00pm central
Event Type: Complimentary Webinar

Despite the highly publicized focus on promoting DEI in the workplace, emerging evidence suggests that while progress has been made, the "moment" may have begun to pass, and many organizations have since turned their attention to other initiatives.

In our view, continued DEI advancement is too critical for organizations to back away from and I/O and HR professionals have a strong role to play in helping to advance this work.

In this session, you will hear Children’s Minnesota and Thrivent Financial share how they have taken a practical, holistic perspective to infuse DEI into all aspects of HR. With MDA Leadership, they will demonstrate how the groundwork can be laid to implement inclusive leadership and make DEI a strategic priority and business differentiator.

You will learn:

  • Essential elements to include in a DEI program for sustainability
  • Best practices for integrating DEI into leadership expectations and values
  • DEI case studies from Children's Minnesota and Thrivent Financial
  • The lasting business impact and ROI of inclusive leadership initiatives
