As DEI continues to grow, it is imperative that the diversity professionals and HR leaders who spearhead their initiatives actively and intentionally further their own DEI educations. These workshops exist to serve as a safe, informative place for those interested in DEI to discuss and learn about DEI, Change management, and organizational development.
