How to Create Inclusive Workplaces Using The Better Allies™ Approach

About this session

Are you looking to build a workplace culture with a certain buzz about it? Where employees are thriving and engagement survey scores are through the roof. Where people from different backgrounds, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, ages, and abilities are hired and set up for success—and they all want their friends to work there too, because it’s so awesome.

One secret to creating this kind of workplace is allyship. And it’s something anyone can do! Join Author of Better Allies: Everyday Actions to Create Inclusive, Engaging Workplaces, Karen Catlin for a live Q&A about how to make your workplace more inclusive!

You asked, she's answering:

  • How can I become a better ally to my peers and coworkers?
  • What are your best tips for giving feedback?
  • Where can I incorporate more inclusive language at work to make the largest impact?
  • & more!
