    Inclusive Hiring

    This interactive session recognizes diversity and embraces qualities and perspectives that candidates can bring to an organization. It's not simply about recruiting people from marginalized backgrounds or with disabilities in an effort to check the box.

    • Levels the playing field
    • Strengthens a company’s reputation which attracts competitive talent

    • Every level of management being trained on the practice of diversity and inclusiveness
