Event Information

Many organizations have leaned more heavily on employee resource groups as a lower-risk, more familiar approach to inclusion. But for most ERGs—still volunteer-led and often underfunded—that shift came without the structure, expertise, or resources needed to sustain it. The result: rising expectations placed on programs that were never designed to operate at this level.
