McKinsey reports that gender parity would create $28 trillion in annualized global GDP—and that it could be achievable within a decade. That is the equivalent of adding nine more U.S.-sized economies. That figure could solve world hunger, poverty and the clean water crisis; provide free college to everyone is the U.S. as well was forgive all current student load debt; and send humans to Mars and back ... on one year's worth of this new balance. Our world needs gender equality. And we need it now. If we are going to create gender equality, we need to engage men in the process of changing the current norms (according to our partners at Lean In.org). Within the next decade, male Millennials will represent the majority of men in the workplace. If they are engaged, we may have a chance. If they are not, the cycle continues. In this session, learn about the three key areas you need to address if you want to attract, retain and engage the next generation of human capital in your business. In this session, you will learn:

• How to engage male Millennial allies and find blind spots without shame or blame, by using our Unconscious Bias Scavenger Hunt.
• How to structure your workplace meetings for more equality.
• How to detect and correct “mansplaining,” misabropriation” and “manopolizing.”
• How to provide mentorship for Millennials who crave it—how do you deliver it when you're so busy, and how do you make sure you're mentoring everyone equally?
• How to create a charter for a gender partnership employee resource group (ERG).
• How to talk about unconscious bias, using actual scripts.
