How can we approach inclusiveness in a sustainable and scalable way, without creating additional burdens on people already facing challenges?

Asking marginalized individuals to work to support and lead diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) risks creating an unintended ‘diversity tax” burden. While socially-driven efforts often start as volunteer-led, this approach burdens marginalized staff and is not sustainable for the business. This workshop will explore how to approach DEIA sustainably and strategically within an organization. Participants will hear multiple perspectives, analyse scenarios to identify opportunities for improved approaches, and understand how they can contribute as allies, leaders, or affected individuals.
