ORLANDO, Fla. — Committing to diversity, equity and inclusion has been hard lately.
That was one of the core issues that Ashissh Kaul, Doreen Mosher and Katharine Panessidi’s session sought to address for HR professionals seeking a path forward. Kaul is a part of SHRM India, Mosher works for SHRM Linkage and Panessidi works for SHRM Business, but collectively they’re a part of SHRM’s I&D Council.
They outlined all of the world of work pain points that happen to intersect with DEI these days: talent shortages, compliance risks, the battle for worker trust, a clear vision for leadership and the need for civility.
“I know that we all in this room can probably agree that professionals right now are facing converging demands for more strategic outcome-driven approaches to workforce development and inclusion,” Panessidi told the audience Wednesday in the Orange County Convention Center.
