Date & Time: Wednesday, November 20 I 9 am PT 12 pm ET

Speaker 1:  Ellen Bailey, VP, Business & Culture Transformation, Harvard Business Publishing

Speaker 2: Liza Wisner, Enterprise Curator of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, OpenSesame

Increased DEI expectations and goals have led to many positive outcomes, but even organizations committed to building diverse and inclusive cultures hit roadblocks. Do employees have DEI fatigue?

Have leaders moved on to other urgent priorities? Is it just too hard to affect systemic changes?

If you are struggling to sustain high levels of DEI progress and change, while your organization’s focus has shifted, you are not alone.

Learn how to disrupt the common “boom or bust” cycle and make sustainable progress on DEI goals. Hear real-world examples to help you drive deep, systemic change.

During the webinar, you will: 

• Take a new, dare we say “radical” approach to DE&I that drives systemic change
• Gain the language and positioning needed to gain buy-in and support from senior leadership and employees for this important work.  
• Learn how to make these changes rapidly
