The competition to recruit and re-
tain talented employees continues
to intensify. Diverse leadership can
help a company secure access to
more sources of talent, gain a com-
petitive recruitment advantage and
improve it’s global relevance.
In a world that has become more
diverse and deeply interconnected,
companies with greater levels of
diversity are achieving better per-
formance. Given the increasing re-
turns that diversity is expected to
bring, it is better to invest now, as
“winners will pull further ahead and
laggards will fall further behind”.

Developing a diverse and inclusive workforce is a
priority for many companies and it ultimately starts
at the recruiting phase. It is essential for a company
to have an effective talent acquisition process that is
designed to include all talent. In order for a compa-
ny to be considered truly diverse, it may be neces-
sary to adopt new ways of engaging, thinking and
communicating. However, knowing where to start
can be challenging.
In this session we will examine:

There continues to be fierce competition for top talent
across all industries and at all levels. Companies know
that in order to attract and retain the best candidates,
they need to have a diverse and inclusive workforce.
Having a recruiting team who is educated and trained to
recognize and evaluate a diverse set of experiences,
perspectives and backgrounds during the interview
phase is crucial to successfully creating a diverse talent
pool.
In this session we will examine:

Studies show that companies with a diverse and
inclusive workforce have not only a competitive ad-
vantage, but also perform better financially. Having a
successful recruiting strategy in place is critical, but
one of the biggest challenges faced in diversity re-
cruitment is engaging the hiring managers. The level
of their involvement can have a direct effect on the
success of a company’s diversity and inclusion
recruitment efforts.
In this session we will explore:
