MENTOR Independence Region

Join us for an exciting conversation with DEI leaders across the region on leveraging relationships to create stronger workplaces!

Organizations are much better at hiring a diverse workforce than they are in retaining them. It’s a business imperative to create a work environment that fosters inclusion and belonging. Paramount to inclusion and belonging are the formal and informal relationships that diverse employees access to on-board, grow professionally, and access a path for advancement. Join DEI Leaders from across the region as they share insight on the Mentors, Sponsors and Managers that made a difference in their careers, explore innovative ways to hold organizations and people accountable to DEI goals, and empower future leaders to bring our organizations to the next level.
