Europe Virtual Panel: D&I During COVID19. Not now? Or now more than ever?

The world has shifted tremendously over the past months. There are increased complexities, challenges, and disparities in how we are experiencing and navigating these times. With so much on our plates every single day we might ask ourselves: Are Diversity, Equity and Inclusion still a priority?

The answer can only be: Yes. We are in a moment of unprecedented disruption and widespread uncertainty. As new and unexpected developments occur in the COVID-19 pandemic, organizations must shift priorities. Individuals must navigate personal and professional challenges. Evidence shows that the pandemic will have a disproportionate negative effect on women, and some predict it will derail the progress we have made for women and minorities in the workplace.

Catalyst aims to help you sustain, pivot, and leverage your diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. We’ve cultivated nearly 60 years of research leadership, consulting expertise, and the collective wisdom of 800+ global corporate supporters. We know that inclusion, inclusive leadership, and inclusive team and organizational cultures are essential for individuals and organizations to align, manage, and innovate in these challenging times.

Hear from Catalyst global experts and features guest speakers who will share the challenges and responses they are witnessing. Don’t let this temporary crisis derail your diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) progress and inadvertently lead to long-term results you will regret.

Join us for a live conversation with our featured panelists from Catalyst Supporters Boehringer Ingelheim and Volkswagen on how organizations can prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion in a time of crisis.

Catalyst experts Allyson Zimmermann and Isabelle Kürschner will share strategies that your organization can implement and answer questions real-time. We look forward to the discussion.

Registration is complimentary for Catalyst supporter organizations. Space is limited, so early registration is recommended. For questions, please contact Isabelle Kürschner at [email protected].

 

Panelists:
Makiko Schlegel, Senior Marketing Manager Global Diversity & Inclusion Team, Boehringer Ingelheim
Elke Heitmüller, Head of Diversity, Volkswagen
