Diversity hiring often suffers from the stigma of being something that organizations merely comply with rather than embrace. It is a common lament that, while many organizations have “appropriately diverse” workforces, that diversity is not as apparent in leadership positions. How then, can organizations prioritize diversity when making hiring decisions about executive/leadership positions?
In this webcast, learn how to truly embrace diversity in leadership hiring and how to make your organization more attractive to the best of minority candidates for leadership positions.

Hi Paul,
The slides from the presentation are available above- just click on "slides." There is also an ebriefing available right next to the slides. We have six on our Talent Acquisition team- spread out over the US, but not globally yet!
How many folks make up your Talent Acquisition Team? Do you have a global team as well?
