What does it mean to have an "inclusive culture" and how do we craft one?
In this panel conversation, you will hear from Michele and other DE&I consultants that work with companies on just that...creating an environment that is welcoming to all and where employees feel safe to be themselves, allowing them to work freely at their highest potential. What are the conversations, activities, and mindset changes that need to be had in order to accomplish this goal?
