The Inclusion advantage: Unlocking workforce potential (In-Person)

October 21 @ 2:00 pm - 3:45 pm AEDT

Free - $200.00
Text: D&I Insights

Workplace inclusion is not a ‘nice-to-have,’ but a critical tool for building future-ready, skilled and resilient workforces.

 

As each of DCA’s Inclusion@Work Index reports have demonstrated, inclusion is much more than a “feel good” exercise – it creates a better work environment that boosts employee wellbeing, fuels performance and minimises risk.  And yet many people are locked out of workplaces or aren’t given the opportunity to fully contribute their skills and talents.

 

At our next D&I Insights forum, hosted by DCA major partner Gilbert + Tobin, we will explore how workplaces can harness inclusion for the benefit of all.

 

Guest contributors will include:

  • Melinda Cilento (she/her), Chief Executive Officer, CEDA

  • Anna Sparkes (she/her), Chief People Officer, Gilbert + Tobin

  • Alex Jones (he/him), Senior Manager of Access, Sydney Opera House

  • A representative from Settlement Services International (SSI).

 

The venue is fully accessible. If you have any particular access needs, please email events@dca.org.au. If you require an Auslan interpreter, let us know 10 working days before the event. 

 

This event is hybrid and is also available to livestream. To join us online, register here.
