This breakout session will briefly discuss the difference between corporate values and corporate culture. We will then dive into what defines good corporate culture, how it evolves, and how to influence it. We will discuss how having an inclusive, dynamic corporate culture positively affects hiring and retaining quality staff. Attendees at all levels should walk away with ideas of ways to enhance their company's corporate culture. Breakout Session B2: Buttressing our Foundations and Values
In this breakout session, participants will explore the intersection of personal and organizational values, and gain an understanding of how such framing can illuminate and expand possibilities to lead change, technical or cultural. Breakout Session B3: Stressing the Importance of Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace
This breakout session will incorporate storytelling and interactive, small group activities to encourage participants to reflect on and share their own experiences.
