Research has proven that diverse teams make better decisions and are more adaptive. More diverse teams lead to better investments, higher engagement, and innovation. Yet DEI is under attack.

Even with all the evidence supporting the importance of DEI in the workplace, your initiatives will need to look different going forward to accommodate increased legal pressures for measurement and accountability. The Business Review will bring leaders together to help us navigate the challenges, to inform us on best practices for hiring managers and to share why DEI is still a very important piece of your workplace. Recruiting and retaining top talent will depend on the ability to navigate these nuances. Come join us with your team on June 13 at the Hilton Garden Inn Troy.
