Build Belonging Intentionally: A Fireside Chat with Workday
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB) don’t happen by accident or without measurement. The good news is that as we move into an era of HR tech sophistication, this ecosystem allows HR tech companies to come together to solve big problems.
In this fireside chat, Achievers’ CEO Jeff Cates sits down with Workday’s Vice President, Belonging & Diversity, Kumari Williams to explore Belonging based on the premise of the shared value of the two organizations, which is cultivating a culture where employees bring their best selves to work.
Join us to learn:
- What it means to be intentional with Belonging
- How to set organizational goals when implementing HRIS transformations
