Putting Future Leaders in the Driver's Seat: Strategies for Organizations to Drive Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion by Amplifying Young Voices

Stream: Professional Development and Leadership

Friday, October 25, 2024
3:45 PM - 4:45 PM PST
Location: F149-150
In this roundtable, we will explore who the future leaders will be and what factors are currently affecting and will affect these future leaders’ professional experience. We ask ourselves:How do organizations and senior leaders empower and elevate emerging voices to cultivate the next generation of equitable and inclusive leaders? How will current external factors impact the next generation? What can current leaders/organizations do to support emerging leaders gain the skillsets they need to advance an equitable and inclusive world? How do organizations remain/become a place where inclusive and equitable future leaders want to be? We explore this topic by first understanding the current state of the US Workforce. Then, we discuss external factors that will have an outsized impact on future workforce generations, including the ban on Affirmative Action, Artificial Intelligence, Localization, and shifts in workforce culture. We will end our roundtable by discussing strategies to support emerging leaders become inclusive and equitable leaders of the future.
