Olive Consulting will host April Hennessey, Director of Strategy and Transformation and DEI Practice Lead, at Blanchard who will discuss the value of creating a culture of courageous inclusion.

Creating a diverse and inclusive workforce can foster higher employee engagement, increase creativity, and attract new talent. Many organizations that have made progress in their DEI efforts face unexpected challenges as building awareness and getting people familiar with DEI terminology isn’t enough to effect lasting change.

It takes more than just awareness building and familiarizing people with DEI terminology to enable lasting culture change. Understanding what is needed is key to helping provide organizational members with the confidence and skills they need to create an inclusive, welcoming work environment that encourages people to bring their whole selves to work.
