Panel Presentation: Why Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion? The Experience of Being “Other”
Panelist With Brian Gorman and Daphne Y. Jefferson.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is about more than fair hiring and retention practices, though those are important.
It is also about providing an environment that allows every employee to feel safe, to feel like they belong in the organization and in their positions every bit as much as every other employee.
The members of this panel will share their experiences in jobs that, knowingly or not, made them feel like they did not belong.
They will address the personal and professional costs of those jobs, as well as the costs to organizations that left them feeling like outsiders.
And they will discuss both the requirements and the benefits of a successful DEI program.
As an Introvert, Kim Gray loves working with Introvert Coaches who shy away from marketing and networking because of having 'monsters' under the bed.
She and her clients put their heads together and tackle the 'monsters' keeping the client’s business standing still with custom marketing strategies, fun networking techniques, and a plan for getting things done.
Since 2007, Kim has worked with coach clients to slay their fears around networking in big groups, boost their confidence to connect with prospects, and show up online with savvy and skill so they convert prospects into clients almost overnight.
It's not uncommon for coaches to welcome their first paying premium client within weeks of starting their coaching relationship with Kim and for them to celebrate how fun and easy it was to get the mission accomplished systematically.
