Town Hall Series – Inclusion in the Winter Industry

As part of the ongoing effort to help the winter outdoors define a path to inclusivity, this next series of town halls is focused on changes in the workplace. From hiring to marketing, we’ll spend time talking to individuals who are putting in the work and committed to change in their business. It’s time to learn about what it means to “walk the walk” of inclusive change. These sessions will focus on tactical tips and tools for our attendees in their organizations.

An Inclusive Approach to Hiring and Retaining Employees

Homogenous teams produce homogenous results. This session will examine not only how different perspectives, experiences and skill sets, foster greater creativity and innovation, but also some best practices from hiring to retaining employees and how to be a better ally to employees from underrepresented groups.
