Event Description

KEYNOTE: HOW TO WORK WITH & LEAD PEOPLE NOT LIKE YOU

Diversity in the workforce is a hot topic. Many employers are under pressure to make sure their workforce and employee base is diverse, inclusive and representative of the customers they serve. The most progressive organizations value diversity because they realize that a diverse workforce has positive impact on the bottom line. Such a workforce doesn’t just lead to better decisions and solutions and innovation - it has been proven to grow business and profits. And a diverse workforce doesn’t just mean employees of different racial and ethnic backgrounds; it can also mean diversity of thought.

Kelly’s keynote takes the topic of work and leadership to a new place – one that is getting more attention every day!
