🏃♀️🏃♀️ The Chicagoland Chamber's Programs Team in action! Emily Cooper and Sofia Rivera recently attended a Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) conference, presented by Diversity Woman Media at the Hyatt Regency McCormick Place. ⬇ Check out some of Emily's takeaways:
🌟 Yesterday's Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) conference, presented by Diversity Woman Media at the Hyatt Regency McCormick Place, was a truly inspiring event! 🌟 🙏 A big thank you to Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce members and friends Larry Baker and Alisa M. Kolodizner from LCW for the invitation, and to Sofia Rivera for joining me as a partner. 👏 It was amazing to see Chamber members Amazon, Google, McDonald's, Walgreens, Zurich Insurance, Ferrara, Edward Jones, and LCW sponsoring this important event. The day was packed with insightful panels on: 🔹 Building trust and inclusive workplaces 🔹 Disability inclusion 🔹 The future of DEI 🔹 Utilizing metrics for DEIB strategies Key Takeaways: 1️⃣ Constructive feedback, transparency, support, resources, belonging, and empathy are not just soft skills but essential leadership skills for building trust. 2️⃣ DEI should be actionable and not just a branding exercise. 3️⃣ It's vital to show employees how their voices lead to direct outcomes, ensuring they feel heard. 4️⃣ Equity means meeting people where they are and providing the tools they need to contribute effectively. 💡 This scratches the surface of an impactful day of learning. 🚀 Great to also reconnect with Steven L. Hunter and Tyronne Stoudemire from the Chamber's DEIA Steering Committee panel in May. I can’t wait to continue to unpack the learnings. #DEIB2024 #Leadership #Inclusion #Equity #Diversity #WorkplaceCulture #ChicagolandChamber #HyattRegency #LearningAndDevelopment
