Building Inclusive Workplace Cultures
Event Overview
A culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion, however, does not just spring from the C-suite; human resources teams also play a key role in workplace inclusivity. HR professionals need to adopt a progressive approach that implements proven human capital best practices that support a thriving and inclusive culture. HR practices within recruitment, talent development, mentoring, employee relations, performance management, and compensation all impact how organizational culture is perceived. The challenge is to incorporate these practices into an infrastructure that measures and reinforces equity, fairness, equal opportunity, innovation, teamwork, collaboration, and flexibility, all of which are critical to a culture of inclusion.
In this one-hour online session, a panel of HR professors and practitioners will discuss the practices and metrics that are integral to building an inclusive culture.
What You'll Learn
- Key HR practices that support a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI)
- Alignment of HR practices to optimize the effectiveness of an inclusive culture
- Data collection and analysis that inform DEI strategies
- The value of developing a DEI index
- How to engage, inform, and troubleshoot DEI strategies with senior leadership
