Many companies and organizations in natural resources have embraced their diversity challenges, developing programs focused on recruiting underrepresented populations. But important though it is, recruiting is only the first step. Once they join your organization, how do you retain this new talent?
At the "Cultivating Higher Achievement in Generational Engagement" Webinar, the NC State Community for Diversity in Natural Resources will continue the discussion about understanding diversity as it relates to different identity groups as part of the 4th Annual Diversity Summit. The goal of this conference is to provide information about how to increase and improve diversity efforts in all areas of natural resources.
This year the summit will be delivered as a webinar. Embracing this new delivery method has the added benefit of allowing more people to participate. For more information about the agenda, speakers and registration – visit the Webinar website.
Summit sponsors are Weyerhaeuser and the NC State College of Natural Resources
