Today, ERGs address a variety of issues in the workplace, develop client and business opportunities, expand cross-cultural and global understanding and – by reaching out to communities – build corporate responsibility. Many ERGs have evolved from purely social groups to entities that are closely aligned with business goals and career development.
But how they’re used and integrated with strategic goals can vary widely. Is your organization getting the most out of its ERGs?
In this session, we will unpack the success factors for ERGs and actionable take-aways from Catalyst Research on ERGs that span industries and global regions, including how to:
· Develop a mission statement objectives and guiding principles,
· Create a strong, organization-specific business case,
· Establish the group’s governance structure,
· Determine specific areas for activity that are relevant to the group’s constituency,
· Create metrics to track effectiveness,
· And report regularly to the executive sponsor, DEI Office, and/or HR.
We will discuss how you can apply these strategies in your companies and better understand the complexity of multiple social identities in the workplace.
We invite business leaders, HR professionals, DEI professionals, ERG leaders and champions of inclusion to join us. Registration is complimentary for Catalyst Supporters.
We thank MunichRe for generously hosting for this event.
