Join us on September 25 for a virtual "think tank" discussion for our Interim Executive Academy Study Group - Navigating the New DEI Landscape in Uncertain Times: Strategies for Interim Chief Executives. As organizations scrutinize their use of language, their description of mission and programs, and the way they present issues of equity and inclusive in their workplaces and their services, we will offer some perspectives on finding the right balance and moving forward with confidence. What does the uncertainty around DEI mean for an interim stepping into an organization trying to improve the sense of belongingness among its constituents, staff, and volunteers?

Our guests will include Maria Chavez-Wilcox, CEO of YWCA Seattle King Snohomish, and Alicia Vega (IEA Class #15), interim executive and consultant. They will share their individual perspectives about approaching this new reality in creating and supporting belongingness in the organizations they serve.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the evolving landscape of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in the workplace.
• Learn strategies to promote DEI initiatives and create an inclusive organizational culture.
• Develop skills to address and overcome DEI-related challenges in uncertain times.
