TOPIC
It's a given that more diverse workplaces are more innovative and productive, but how can employers make sure they're doing everything they can to hear what those workers have to say? What signals can management send to create the psychological safety to speak up–and feel heard? How can managers be trained to listen to their workers, both as individuals and as groups? And what has recent employee activism shown us about how management can be responsive in a mutually beneficial way?

While diversity and inclusion efforts have focused primarily on ethnicity and gender, many employers are seeking to be more inclusive of neurodiversity, people with disabilities, and other forms of diversity. Not only can this create a more culturally rich work environment for everyone, but an opportunity to broaden the search for talent in a competitive labor market. How can companies hire and promote a diverse workforce with the accommodations they may need, as well as focusing on their talent and potential rather than their differences?

With as many as 5 generations in the workforce, organizations are starting to pay attention to age as an element of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Age intersects with all other aspects of identity, and the breadth of experience and skills across all ages in the workforce is a strength to be leveraged. But how do you build truly age-inclusive organizations, and how do you resist the urge to bucket people into generational stereotypes? This session will provide a “101” guide to incorporating age into your DEI work.
