The current narrative around Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI), combined with the economic climate, has caused some companies to claw back DEI initiatives and abandon previous commitments. This may mean less focus, less resources and less buy-in. But where does that leave the work that still needs to get done and the people who are doing it? 🤔

, we're excited to host Jess Harvie, an Equity, Inclusion and Social Impact Consultant, as she walks us through the current status of DEI. We'll learn the trends in how companies are approaching diversity in their workforces and what you can do to reframe your company's approach to DEI to continue the work. Don't miss out — see you there! 🚀
