Learn business strategies and principles for bringing together a diverse mix of employees to create an inclusive workplace.
Mixing more than 2,000 employees - 80% with a disability, 31 nationalities and 28 languages may not exactly sound like a recipe for workforce success. But if you are open-minded and flexible, you can create a culture of passionate and engaged employees committed to inclusiveness and high performance. Learn how this six-time Sloan Award Winner for Excellence in Workplace Flexibility blends this unusual mix with a work culture centered on principles of respect, dignity, and high business standards across five business lines. Leave with practical, reasonable and realistic ways to incorporate accommodations and flexible business practices to support every employee in reaching their fullest potential.
