How to Retain Underrepresented Talent Through Better Inclusion

Hiring is only half the battle. Identify why diverse talent leaves and build a culture where everyone wants to stay.

About this session

Organizations often meet diversity hiring goals only to lose that talent because the internal culture fails to support them long-term. This session helps teams identify the specific friction points that cause underrepresented employees to leave and results in a documented plan to fix those cultural gaps.

Why it works

The session forces a shift from abstract diversity statistics to the specific, daily experiences that cause employees to disengage. By structuring the conversation around root-cause analysis and immediate accountability, it prevents the discussion from stalling at generalities and moves directly into assigning ownership for necessary changes.

What you’ll walk away with

  • Clear actionable outcomes from a 4-step facilitated process
  • Increased participant engagement and buy-in
  • Documented decisions and next steps
  • Improved team alignment on the topic
