What is Diversity and Why Does It Matter? with Dr. Wendy Cukier

Description

Lower turnover, and higher employee engagement and loyalty: these are just a few of the benefits of a more diverse workforce. An organizational commitment to diversity can help businesses address labour market shortages, access talent and markets, comply with regulations and drive innovation. There are also new opportunities to access resources and supports through initiatives such as the 50 — 30 Challenge.
 
But what, exactly, is meant by equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI)? And how can small and medium-sized enterprises achieve them?
 
The Ontario Chamber of Commerce invites you to join Dr. Wendy Cukier, founder and academic director of the Diversity Institute at Toronto Metropolitan University’s Ted Rogers School of Management, for an insightful webinar, What is Diversity and Why Does It Matter?
 
Dr. Cukier, who leads Canada’s longest-running action research institute in diversity, will discuss the strategic necessity of EDI in the workplace and steps businesses can take to get there.
