News & Events

This webinar, hosted by Brian Carwana, will explore religion, often the neglected, avoided topic when it comes to diversity and inclusion. For many devotees, religion is not irrelevant but central to their identity. The webinar will will touch on Western bias regarding religion, how this bias leads us to sideline the topic, and how you can begin to correct this sidelining via religious holidays, one area where religion is especially visible at work.
