What does it mean to be an employer of choice TODAY?
One that continues to transform and evolve. An Employer with goals to create and sustain a positive work environment, build an outstanding brand, with a welcoming, inclusive, and productive culture.
Employers of Choice today, commit to supporting equity in the workplace. While companies declared their position in 2020 to support racial equity, current focus now wanes.
I often find in my work that company leaders and employees are reluctant to talk about racial inequality in the workplace, because they fear saying the wrong thing. But these conversations are critical and can’t be ignored, with a goal of positive inclusive culture. An Employer of Choice, rises to the occasion to learn and unlearn what is needed to address inequity.
I had a wonderful conversation with my distinguished guest and friend Lindsey T.H. Jackson, CEO at LTHJ Global and North American based leader.
She is a trailblazer, a pioneer, and ambassador of disruption. She invites everyone to her “learn and unlearn” discussions about the issue of race and becoming an anti-racist organization.
Join our conversation about overcoming fears, acknowledging tough questions, seizing growth opportunities, and the courage to evolve, to be a Employer of Choice –that believes in racial equity and knows that it is a journey that continuous seeks to improve.
