How to Measure and Accelerate Belonging
Wednesday, May 21, 2025 - 9am-10am PT | 12pm-1pm ET
We all know that inclusive work environments lead to better outcomes - attracting, retaining and developing talent; generating innovation; strengthening capacities to be agile and responsive to changing contexts; and increased engagement & productivity. That’s why as a People and Culture leader you likely work very hard to create an effective EDIB strategy, programs, policies and practices. But how do you know what is working and what needs course correcting? Or whether what you do is welcoming and inclusive to some team members or inadvertently creates a sense of exclusion for others? You might know hybrid team culture can be challenging but how can you pinpoint what needs course correcting to make all the difference?
In this webinar, Jessie Sutherland will provide an introduction to how to measure belonging in your unique context. You’ll leave with a new view on evaluation as an opportunity to deepen learning across your organization and give you the information you need to be confident about your best next step to build a genuine culture of belonging within your teams.
Join us for a practical and engaging conversation with Jessie Sutherland to discuss tools for measuring and accelerating belonging within your own contexts so you can know what is working, what needs course correcting and ultimately increase your impact.
What to expect: A practical session with key take-away tools you can implement immediately to measure and enhance belonging in your workplace.
Note: webinar is from 10am-11am MDT and 1pm-2pm EDT
Closed captioning will be available, in English, French and several other languages. Please inquire at info@tapnetwork.ca for the other languages available.
