Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) – how to help clients manage the 'S' in ESG
Wednesday 28 February (1400 - 1515)
Description
Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), as part of the ‘S’ in ESG, are thought to be a key part of successfully managing a diverse workforce; but the political forces countering ESG are focusing on DEI programmes and are seeking their elimination. This panel of seasoned professionals will explore the history of DEI programmes, the business case for DEI and expectations for the future, as well as best practices for lawyers advising on DEI-related issues.
