Sessions

Workplace Application: This session will examine D&I as part of an organization’s talent management strategy.

This session is recommended for senior and executive D&I practitioners. A strategic plan for D&I from a talent management perspective provides strong advantages in terms of defined goals, pre- and post-assessment, and the ultimate convergence of domestic D&I with intercultural competence goals for effective operation in the global multicultural workscape. At the end of this session you will be able to reframe D&I programs within the strategic framework of talent management; reconsider the goals of D&I within the framework of intercultural competence; understand the role of assessment tools in strengthening strategic D&I development; and blend D&I goals of the domestic multicultural workplace with those of the interculturally competent global workscape.
