Event Highlights:

To kick-start DEI policies in your organization, Steph suggested starting with company values, driving decisions with data, co-creating with a diverse set of employee voices, and measuring results. Sakchai shared Chevron's MARC (Men Advocating Real Change) Program and five things for leaders to keep in mind when striving for a successful diversity program. AMCHAM members actively participated in a question and answer session with questions ranging from how to request and consider personal data provided on resumes to measuring employee diversity against candidate qualifications.

“DEI is like giving employees experience, so they feel empowered to continue and fulfill their dreams.” - Sakchai
