Does a diverse workforce truly impact the bottom line? It sure does! Attracting, retaining, developing, and strategically deploying a talented workforce that represents a variety of experiences and environments has been proven to dramatically increase innovation and financial performance.

In fact, according to a January 2015 McKinsey study, gender diverse companies experienced financial performance that was 15 percent higher than the national industry median, and ethnically diverse companies had performance that was 35 percent higher than the national industry median. Weaving diversity into the DNA of your organization’s talent management strategy is a solid way to drive positive business outcomes for your organization.

That’s why BDI and PeopleFluent are hosting The ROI of a Diverse & Inclusive Workforce on Wednesday, May 18, 2016 in Toronto. Join us for an interactive panel and roundtable discussion on talent management strategies and diversity initiatives, featuring HR Executives from major brands. Moderating the panel will be Jamie Aitken, HR Innovator, from PeopleFluent. The panel will feature real-world examples and in-depth discussions on how to manage priorities and execute on talent decisions that drive measurable financial performance. Attendees will walk away with lessons learned and action plans on how to use inclusion-focused talent management strategies to move focus away from diversity counts instead to making diversity count.

Space is limited, so reserve your spot today.

We will answer the following questions:

• How do you measure the ROI of diversity?
• How do leading organizations embrace diversity as a competitive differentiator that strengthens both their employer brand and bottom line simultaneously?
• What are the technologies and tools leading organizations use to support an inclusive workforce?
• How do top employers overcome the significant challenges to achieving measurable business results from a diverse workforce?
• How do the most diverse companies create and support a culture of inclusion?
