In the wake of George Floyd’s killing, we’ve all received numerous emails from businesses, organizations and agencies pledging a commitment to race equity. Perhaps we have even sent such messages ourselves. Phrases, slogans and marketing emails are relatively easy to produce. But results are not. How do organizations actually achieve greater racial diversity, inclusion, equity, and justice for customers, workers and their broader communities?
The Performance Excellence Network is pleased to host an online webinar discussion on Thursday, June 25: “Delivering on a Commitment of Race Equity.” The discussion will be facilitated by Lisa Tabor, Principal at CultureBrokers, a Minneapolis-based consulting firm that helps organizations get meaningful diversity, inclusion and equity results.
Lisa will explore the meaning of true racial equity to the community and to the organizations in which we work. She’ll share her insights as to why organizations need to make high-impact change now, for the benefit of their workforce and stakeholders — including the positive financial impact that true racial equity can offer organizations. She’ll illustrate six key principles that all organizations need to follow to get meaningful and sustainable results, and she’ll offer a few suggestions of what any decision-maker in any organization can do now to make progress on delivering greater racial equity.
Most of us have been touched by the events in our community the last few weeks. All of us are required to respond in some way. Come explore how each one of us as individuals and as organizations can make improvements that have real and lasting positive impact.
The discussion will be a live Zoom Webinar Thursday, June 25 from 8:00-9:00 CT. Grab your coffee and breakfast, and join us for a rich discussion. Free for PEN members; $20 for non-members.
