Is the Pandemic a Bane or a Boon to D&I?
Event Information
About this event
The pandemic has wreaked havoc on the economy, and companies are facing unprecedented challenges in maintaining operations while keep their business afloat. To save costs, employees are furloughed and discretionary spending is frozen. Naturally, diversity & inclusion (D&I) initiatives and programmes are at risk given budget cuts and other belt-tightening measures, but experts have argued that D&I is critical for business recovery, resilience and reimagination.
DISCUSSION TOPICS
• Why it is more important than ever to drive D&I
• How to steer D&I amid these challenging times
• Why D&I is important for business recovery
• What values does D&I bring to companies
