ANZCHAM has pioneered groundbreaking initiatives that enable inclusivity and empowerment in the workplace, leading to not only better workforces but also productive businesses. With our new DEI Committee, we heightened this commitment as we held the first ever diversity, equity and inclusion event last June. Now, we're coming back with another signature event which we hope will start more conversations on DEI's place in our organizations.
This 10 November 2022, 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. (GMT +8) via Zoom, we invite you to Great Minds Don't Think Alike: Taking Real Action on DEI. Keynote speakers Manny Rubio, President & CEO of Aboitiz Power and Adi Timbol-Hernandez, Corporate Relations Director of McDonald's Philippines will join us to share best DEI practices in their workplaces.
We hope you can join us as we listen to new knowledge and experience on breakthrough commitments of those who cultivate diverse and inclusive communities that champions equal opportunities. A sumptuous meal kit is also available to order so you can enjoy this lunch while listening in the session.
Don't miss it. Register now!
