Overview

In light of the current economic downturn, many companies may be considering reducing their DEI budgets. But at what cost?

Putting DEI front and centre has proven itself as an effective means to enabling businesses to thrive and become more resilient. It is also critical to building a positive brand reputation which in turn attracts a long-term talent pool & customer base.

This exclusive Insight Hour will demonstrate how DEI should be the last item organizations should be slashing. Our expert panel will guide you on ways to strengthen your DEI business plans internally and ensure you are honoring the DEI initiatives you have been implementing.

Discussion topics:

  • How can you keep DEI at the top of your business’ workforce strategy?
  • How do you expand a business case for keeping your DEI plans in place given the challenging economic climate?
  • How can the private and public sector work together to carve out pathways that lead to real economic mobility?
  • How can you apply DEI work to changing or emerging business needs?
