While many companies have diversity programs in place, they are often disparate across business units and geographies, making them inconsistent and ineffective. Internal, corporate social networks can help you attract, retain, connect, and mentor women and diversity groups across the organization. Through these networks, employees can build their personal and professional networks, attend events designed for them, hold discussions on a variety of topics, find resources and mentors for career advancement, and more.
This session will discuss how to keep your diverse workforce engaged and connected to each other and the company in an effort to promote the engagement, retention, professional development and recruitment of diverse professionals. Whether you are seeking to launch, improve or streamline your diversity efforts, this webcast is for you.
