@christie_engler A9. Diversity in leadership fosters innovation, enhances problem-solving, and ensures better representation of diverse perspectives, leading to more inclusive decision-making processes. #HRSocialHour

@ChrisFitzSpeaks @sbrownehr Agreed. Really all departments need the training, but often in larger organizations recruiters are seeing resumes and are in the starting point within the hiring process.

@ChrisFitzSpeaks @christie_engler There's also stay interviews. We don't have to wait until our employees leave. #HRSocialHour

@christie_engler A8. Mentorship and sponsorship provide guidance and advocacy, helping underrepresented employees navigate career challenges and access leadership opportunities. #HRSocialHour

@sbrownehr agreed although the data helps, especially in larger organizations but yes I see your point. We also should be doing it as it is ethically right #HRSocialHour

@christie_engler A7. Companies can measure progress in DEIB initiatives by tracking diversity metrics, conducting regular surveys, and assessing representation at all levels. #HRSocialHour

@NRobertsHR 💯

@angela_champ @christie_engler Love this. I also think our schools should be implementing travels for students. This helps growth & experience.

@McQuadeTX @christie_engler Love San Antonio

@christie_engler A6. Organizations can ensure equal opportunities by implementing transparent promotion criteria, fair consistent performance measures, offering mentorship programs, and conducting regular diversity audits. #HRSocialHour

@sbrownehr Wouldn’t be HR without being consistent!!! 😃

@angela_champ @sbrownehr Getting out there and trying different things, having these sort of conversations, checking on our own biases. #HRSocialHour

@christie_engler A5. Foster cultural competence by promoting diversity training, encouraging open dialogue, and celebrating diverse perspectives and experiences. #HRSocialHour
