Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: A Leadership Imperative for Systemic Transformation
A departure from “business as usual” is critical to rethink and reimagine long-standing, enduring challenges of inequality and exclusion.
The need for a focused, systems-based approach to achieving meaningful change in advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is particularly apparent in today’s corporate systems and structures.
Tackling such a systems-based challenge, however, requires structured transformation and principled leaders with a global DEI mindset prepared to champion this change.
To present leadership solutions for responding to and embracing effective DEI ideas and practices the MIT Sloan School of Management hosted a virtual panel conversation, powered by AccountAbility.
The panel brings together renowned academics and esteemed industry leaders in a discussion of the challenges that face us all personally and professionally – the behaviors and system failures that perpetuate inequity, and the leadership traits that have the potential to transform this narrative for a more resilient future.
