Making tangible progress towards DEI goals continues to be a top priority for today’s organizations. Diverse employees are in high demand, forcing organizations to make difficult tradeoffs between long-term DEI objectives and immediate staffing crises. Hybrid work can limit employees’ visibility for new talent opportunities, and women and people of color are disproportionately affected. How are CHROs responding to these and other challenges to build a truly diverse and equitable workforce? Join the CHRO Global Leadership Board to develop strategies for making meaningful progress on DEI goals and initiatives in an environment of major disruption.
