This page is updated regularly as new resources become available.
In this time of major disruption at work, at home and in our communities, Diversity Best Practices and our sister organizations WorkingMother.com, Culture@Work and Working Mother Research Institute, have been working hard to compile and create resources to support you as you navigate these unchartered waters. COVID-19 is disrupting everything, from workflows to revenue streams to supply chains and consumer demands. As a result, leaders need to constantly revisit priorities and goals, acting decisively and quickly as circumstances change. From supporting employees working remotely for the first time to keeping employees connected and engaged to mitigating bias in our workplaces and communities, our work could not be more important as it is right now.
To that end, we have created this page on our website to serve as a hub for resources we hope will make your jobs just a little bit easier. We will be updating it regularly and welcome your input. Please share any great resources you come across and/or strategies you are using at your organizations (or at home!) to address these challenges.
Be well and stay safe!
