3 Learning Objectives from this Session:

• Red flags in your review cycle: clear signals that you have, or will have, issues with your requirements discovery team.
• Setting targets for timetable and turnaround: what should you expect from a top notch analyst team?

Manage Diversity – Add Value!

Want to take the diversity in your organization to the next level? We all value diversity, but in our view, diversity is not enough.

It’s how you manage diversity that matters.

If it’s not managed well, it doesn’t produce the benefits we know it can- financial performance, innovation, productivity, retention, and more!

In this session, Kristen Bakalar, (LinkedIn profile) Senior Consultant at BlessingWhite  will discuss Catalyst’s, beliefs on how inclusive leaders:

• Turn diversity into a strategic advantage,
• How they leverage diversity, and…
• Move from awareness to action.

And, you will walk away with tangible ways to create an inclusive environment in your organization.
