Action Step – Highlights & Insights from our 2023 Annual Conference

The Alliance’s Action Steps are designed to assist organizations with implementing practical strategies and policies related to diversity and flexibility. Members can access full versions of all of the Alliance’s Action Steps in the Member Resource Center.

Our 2023 Annual Conference, “Humanizing the Workplace: Thriving Beyond the Global Reset,” was our first in-person conference since the pandemic and included a variety of programming, inspirational speakers, networking opportunities, and insightful panels. Participants should reflect on new ideas, innovative trends, and creative solutions and think about how to apply them to their organizations. Some of our top takeaways from the Conference are as follows:

  1. Remember “Equity, Inclusion & Belonging” in DEI&B: Throughout the Conference, many speakers pressed on the importance of DEI&B coming from the top to make an impact throughout the organization. Various speakers discussed different ways to do so. For example, organizations that include DEI&B leaders in Executive Committee meetings encourage awareness of DEI&B implications. Additionally, leaders in the talent and DEI&B space will have a greater ability to make a difference by holding a senior title, such as Partner, Chief and/or Managing Director.
