Even when Diversity & Inclusion initiatives seem to have all of the right components in place, many will falter or fail. Often, such initiatives end up being dwarfed by other important or timely programs or completely eliminated because it doesn’t bear fruit or resolve an immediate problem.

Join Linkage for a complimentary webinar with Baystate Health as they discuss how in just a little more than three short years, their Office of Diversity & Inclusion has been able to successfully embed its Diversity & Inclusion strategy into the organization and is already seeing evidence of the culture shift taking place. After careful observation, their three person D&I team has been able to identify the keys to their success.

During this session attendees will have an opportunity to:

• Learn how to use an organizational assessment to drive their Diversity & Inclusion strategy
• Define Diversity & Inclusion in ways that do not alienate leaders and employees who are not conventionally considered “diverse”
• Understand how to embed their Diversity & Inclusion strategy into the overall mission and strategy of the organization.

Presenters:

Bobby Rodriguez, Chief Diversity Officer, brings with him a long track record of promoting diversity in healthcare settings, says improving Baystate’s cultural competencies means better patient experiences and the highest-quality care.

Kimberly Williams, Diversity Specialist, in 2005 created Next Level Development (NLD) in an effort to promote the career and personal development of women and people of color over the life span…substituting chance with information and preparation.
