July 12 – Building the Diversity of Your Talent Streams, Part 1

Decades of research by organizational scientists, sociologists, economists, and demographers show that socially diverse groups (that is, those with a diversity of race, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation, for example) are more innovative than homogeneous groups. However, simply having a diverse workforce does not always guarantee an inclusive workplace. Strategies to support a diverse talent pool are needed at every stage of the hiring process.

In this training participants will:
o learn the importance of attracting a diverse talent pool;
o discuss the benefits of mitigating bias in the hiring process;
o consider immediate strategies and tactics for more equitable hiring and talent attraction.
