About the event
Join us each quarter as we bring together a specialist panel of academics, practitioners, lawyers and journalists to discuss the latest Diversity, Inclusion, Culture & Engagement (DICE) stories and research.
As a round-table format and with contributions from experienced practitioners, this session will focus on what is having an impact and what organisations should be aware of (and focusing on).
Targeted at anyone interested in the DICE agenda, from senior executives and academics to those with a wish to fast-track their understanding on how to make an impact  - and be able to differentiate between investing in programmes with strategic impact vs feeling pressure to drive activity for activity's sake.
Agenda in advance: You will receive an agenda of specifics topics and stories we will cover the day before so we are right up to date.
Colleagues or students with an interest or career aspirations in the DICE space are also welcome to come as a guest with you.
