AmCham Diversity and Inclusion Conference 2018

AmCham Diversity and Inclusion Conference 2018
There is strong empirical evidence that increased diversity and inclusion in the workplace improves business outcomes. A more inclusive team will devise more complete solutions, provide better client relations, and achieve higher returns. This conference will focus on the business outcomes that today’s leaders can achieve through embracing inclusion and diversity within their workforces. Working together with the AmCham Governors Council and our Women in Leadership Committee, AmCham’s Conference will bring together members of the Australian and American business communities to hear from industry leaders, engage in honest and open conversations, collaborate in hands-on case study workshops; and to examine the D&I challenges and achievements of AmCham member companies. pastevent
