2019 | HOW DIVERSITY HELPS STARTUP COMPANIES

2019 December 17
Cambridge, Massachusetts

As a Start-Up, it great to have a singular goal.  It is not a good idea for a single mindset. The goal is what every team member needs to focus on, having different perspectives to implement the company’s product or service, speed development and create a more robust company.   Having a diverse team increases innovation, productivity, performance, and reduces fear.  The more diverse your workforce becomes, the larger your talent pool becomes, the larger your company network becomes.  At the end of the day. Everything above makes it easier to conduct business. All while setting your company up for global success.

Our panel consists of; a practitioner who will enlighten us on the benefits of diversity and real-life examples of its benefits, a Diversity and Inclusion consultant to help us understand how to implement diversity in the workplace, an award-winning attorney to tell about personal diversity success stories and how we might think of diversity from a legal perspective, and a business psychologist and business consultant to educate us on how people make decisions and the personal effects of diversity.
