Join Us to Make Change Together

The Executive Working Group (EWG) is the Center for Women and Business's community of practice that bring scholars, practitioners, leaders, and frontline employees to explore best practices in organizational development and workplace intersectional gender equity, diversity, inclusion, and corporate social justice.  With roots in human resource compliance and equal employment opportunity laws, diversity, equity, and inclusion in organizational change is not a new industry.  Today, the benefits of diversity and inclusion are proven to advance social change.  Collaboration between business and DEIJ consultants, practitioners, and scholars is necessary to advance evidence-based, action-oriented interventions to support DEIJ efforts in organizations.

Our open forums provide participants the opportunity to:

  • Engage in discussions with colleagues from all organizational functions including HR, talent management, DEIJ operations, and administration across all industries
  • Convene to understand current data, share best practices, and discover new solutions to implement sustainable long-term DEIJ change
  • Contribute their experiences to create greater impact and help identify areas where academics can generate new research 
  • Create a plan for accountability to make progress on individual and organizational efforts that will move the needle toward equity for all
  • Receive a takeaway following the event, sharing highlights of the forum and any related data from our featured faculty
