Awareness into Action: Inspiring Change [Virtual Summit]

In keeping with best COVID-19 practice, CenterForce is operating virtually! On our new, interactive platform, we offer you the same compelling content and interactive format as at our live conferences, with numerous opportunities to network with both our other attendees and our speakers.

Now more than ever, it is imperative that we adhere to our core values around diversity and inclusion, and remain anchored to our community. Please join us as we continue to explore the obstacles, risks and rewards on the path to a fulfilling and productive career for women and leaders from underrepresented groups.

What are the best strategies for recruiting and retaining diverse talent even in the face of a pandemic? How can we maintain standards of excellence while working remotely? Are companies doing enough to create a culture of inclusion that goes beyond metrics?
