With many DEI programs under attack, the concept of belonging is emerging as a popular replacement. In this session we'll explore the Creating Belonging model and how it can help us build programs that create belonging for ourselves, as well as every level of an organization. We'll explore the imperative to create belonging in our talent development programs to increase engagement and improve retention.
