This session will provide some of the most compelling and cutting-edge research that is changing the game in the way Diversity and Inclusion is viewed and implemented. Hear from some of the field’s foremost authorities, authors, professors, and practitioners as they share provocative and insightful perspectives and strategies on:

• Moving from merely counting heads to driving organizational transformation.

• Sponsorship: Who Really Benefits—Men or Women? Why? What strategies will help increase the effectiveness of sponsorship?

• What inclusion really means and how to measure inclusive climates using qualitative and quantitative data.

• Managing organizational diversity: at the functional level, product mix, innovation, and in the workforce.
