Conversation Starters: How to Build and Drive D&I Initiatives and Policies

Conversation Starters: How to Build and Drive D&I Initiatives and Policies

Sponsored by: Diversity, Equity & Inclusion SIG
Domains: Business Development 

Although many law firms advocate for implementation and expansion of diversity & inclusion programs, legal marketers often struggle to effectively collaborate on the best path forward.

Join the Diversity & Inclusion SIG, virtually via Zoom, on May 21, World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development, as we transform these multifaceted D&I challenges into opportunity driven conversation starters. Our special guest, Lia Dorsey, Head of D&I at Dentons and President of the Association of Law Firm Diversity Professionals (ALFDP), will facilitate a scenario-based workshop focused on effective, action-oriented strategies for managing and operationalizing D&I initiatives, including accountability and key development drivers.

With guidance from Lia, and leveraging key insights, attendees will join breakout groups to discuss scenarios often faced in firms, before reconvening to share actionable strategies for implementing purposeful initiatives.

Based on your survey feedback, we will dive into topics such as:

  • Inclusive behavior and leadership
  • Effective application and management of D&I initiatives
  • Client collaborations

Space is limited, so kindly register today. Get your webcams ready! We look forward to “seeing” you all!
