How Inclusion & Diversity benefits company culture and business success
Speaker: Yaruba Tate, Vice-President, Inclusion & Diversity, Convergint Technologies
Yaruba Tate, Convergint, outlines how the global systems integrator made Inclusion & Diversity (I&D) a priority at all levels, from recruitment and retention to culture and business growth. He will explain how the company implements I&D both internally by supporting the creation of employee-led Affinity Groups and externally through partnerships and business agreements — and steps that all organizations can take to prioritize I&D in 2023 and beyond.
