Shifting workforce expectations, competitive pressures and growing skepticism around traditional DEI approaches have left many leaders searching for practical, forward-thinking solutions. This webinar introduces the concept of "Inclusive Meritocracy," a data-driven framework that aligns talent management with financial performance.

We will explore tools to estimate the ROI of inclusion, reveal hidden biases in policies and systems and identify specific areas for improvement.
