The world around us is constantly shifting, impacting lives both in and out of the workplace. What is new is that people are rethinking their relationship with work and their key strategies for retaining talent. 96% of culture and experience leaders say addressing skills shortages and retaining talent are their biggest priorities in the next 12 months. </p>
<p>To compete, companies must create an environment where people can thrive, experiences are personalized, and leaders at all levels are held accountable. When employees are left “net better off” (NBO), the value of those actions can foster a true sense of belonging for everyone.</p>

Without it, a company’s efforts can lack authenticity and leave employees without clarity about their role in helping the organization change.</p>
<p>KPMG has put transparency at the heart of its DEIB programs. To establish transparency as a company-wide goal, the firm publishes an annual Transparency Report that catalogs the firm’s efforts to ensure professional standards and develop its workforce.</p>
<p>Pulling back the curtain can be scary – but KPMG has embraced the challenge. The process has been informative, with leaders learning how the power of transparency can transform a business, a community and the world.</p>
<p>In this session, hear more about lessons learned from KPMG’s transparency initiative, with tips on how to engage the whole organization around transparent reporting and communication.</p>

Her “If not me, then who?” approach to life led her to become Plante Moran’s DEI leader. It also inspired her to create the Tigray Action Committee, a nonprofit organization committed to giving back and building awareness of the genocide happening in Tigray, Ethiopia, where she and her family emigrated from when she was just one year old.</p>
<p>Hawzien arrived at Plante Moran in 2021 on the heels of the racial reckoning that swept the nation the summer before. Although the firm had launched its DEI Council nearly 20 years earlier – before that was common practice among businesses – it was experiencing a rebirth, driven by passionate staff with a hunger for change and demonstrable progress.</p>
<p>While the firm will be the first to acknowledge that there’s still – and will always be – work to do, under Hawzien’s leadership, they’ve made significant strides. </p>
<p>Hear how Plante Moran has pivoted from a “year of understanding” to a “year of action”; why they’re questioning the wisdom of “cultural fit” and leaning, instead, toward “cultural contribution”; and how they’re slowly, but deliberately, moving toward their aspirational ideal—a firm that values the unique identities and experiences of its staff, where everyone has an equitable and fair opportunity to succeed, and where every staff member can proudly say, “I know I belong here.” </p>
<p>In this session, attendees will learn:</p>
<ul>
<li>How to be more intentional and hold leadership accountable to create a For All culture in which all employees belong, contribute, and grow</li>
<li>How to leverage your employee resource groups to inform and influence DEI business strategies</li>
<li>How to integrate your DEI efforts into employee professional development and compensation </li>

ERGs create critical spaces to recognize and develop leadership within underrepresented groups.</p>
<p>For Dow, one of only four companies in Manufacturing & Production to make the Fortune 100 Best Places to Work For® list in 2022, ERGs are core to the inclusion, diversity, and equity strategy.

According to their annual Voice employee survey, ERG participants experience higher overall employee satisfaction than non-ERG participants by 10 percentage points. </p>

But will it be positive For All? As organizations across the globe begin their artificial intelligence transformation, the leap into the AI era is going to be an order of magnitude more challenging than any technology businesses have grappled with. The challenges go well beyond technical matters to touch on issues of fairness, inclusion and ethics. How can organizations ensure that products and internal systems developed with AI not only avoid bias but contribute to a more equitable employee experience, improved business results and create a better world?</p>
<p>Come to this workshop-style session to explore how leaders versed in ethics can thrive, build trust and create enormous value in the emerging business landscape. Led by Will Griffin, VP of Ethics & Diversity in AI at Hypergiant Industries, a Certified-Great Place To Work that develops custom AI products.

With Will’s guidance, you will wrestle with real-world case studies and come away better equipped to navigate the new realms of AI.</p>
