A Conversation with Guest Speaker: Sean Kelso, Regional Veterans Employer Representative, Oregon Employment Department

“Inclusion is not a matter of political correctness. It is the key to growth.” — Jesse Jackson

Leaders today understand that making progress with diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and accessibility is a journey of cultural change that they must undertake. What are you doing to propel change and inclusion within your company culture and beyond? 

Diversity, equity and inclusion — commonly referred to as DEI — has become increasingly important in the workplace. Employers must now actively work to create meaningful change in spite of the history of injustice that has marginalized underrepresented groups within the workplace.

Let’s take a deeper look into how we can be more inclusive to our veteran community. Join us as we strive to move the conversation forward. This discussion is open to professionals and business owners interested in learning more about leadership for a changing demographic. Let’s discuss how transformational leadership is enacted for diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and accessibility within your teams and programs.

Our forum provides a safe space to have relevant discussion, with an emphasis on diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and accessibility. We invite leaders from throughout the country to infuse their knowledge and wisdom with the group so that we can have an enriching and deepening shared experience.Please join us!

“When everyone is included, everyone wins.” — Jesse Jackson
