Have you kept up with the significant attacks aimed at dismantling DEI? Like most of us, you have probably read Executive Orders 14151 and 14170. But what about other Executive Orders and departmental actions targeting "illegal DEI." Have you read through the July 29th Attorney General's Memorandum on Guidance Regarding Unlawful Discrimination? So much is changing so fast that it is often hard to keep up and get our daily work done. And who better to help us keep up than The Honorable Victoria Lipnic, former EEOC Commissioner and now with Resolution Economics, and Effenus Henderson, President and CEO of Henderworks and a member of IAC"s Advocacy Committee, who writes and speaks on responding to the ongoing DEI Purge. Together, they will explore the current landscape, including insights from the Department of Justice’s latest guidance. Learn how to respond both organizationally and individually to these changes, along with strategies for working with legal counsel to identify the most significant impacts of these federal actions. We are also thrilled to welcome two seasoned Chief Diversity Officers, Bobby Rodriguez and Cal Jackson, who have each headed DEI at four different organizations. They will share their experiences regarding the profound personal and organizational impacts of rapid DEI dismantling within organizations. This is your chance to engage, learn, and strategize for the future! Register now to gain invaluable perspectives and prepare to lead the conversation on how we can collectively respond to evolving DEI dynamics. Together, let's fortify our commitment to inclusive practices in these challenging times.
