SUMMARY:Embodying diversity\, equity\, and inclusion at your startup
DESCRIPTION:One of the most important things when starting a company i
 s defining workplace culture. With multiple demands and oftentimes a f
 ast-paced environment\, startups face unique challenges and opportunit
 ies in creating the foundation for the company they envision. A key pa
 rt of that foundation is embodying a diverse\, equitable\, and inclusi
 ve work environment.\n\nWhat would it look like to honor the identitie
 s of employees? How do we increase employee engagement and retention o
 n our team? Where do we even start when discussing diversity\, equity\
 , and inclusion (DEI)? These are ongoing questions to ask ourselves as
  we think of ways to closely align DEI with our mission\, values\, and
  practice.\n\nJoin us and our special guest speakers who will share th
 eir successes and challenges as it relates to embodying a DEI framewor
 k at startups.\n\nHow is this going to work?\n\nWe’ll be sending out a
  calendar invite to all attendees one week prior to the event. In that
  invite\, you’ll get a bunch of details on how it works\, as well as a
  fun list of topics we’ll pre-set for you (don’t worry we’ll leave som
 e room for random on the fly conversations too\, you can just consider
  these icebreakers!). You won’t need to download any software\, but fo
 r the best experience\, we recommend having a computer with camera and
  microphone ability.\n\nAgenda:\n\n5:00-5:30pm- Event check-in begins\
