Engage with leading HR professionals

In an era of shifting global priorities, organisations are re-examining their commitment to DEE&I—its strategic value, impact on economic performance and long-term sustainability.

This closed-door discussion brings together an elite group of HR thought leaders, like yourself, to share insights and define the future of DEE&I.

Guided by our distinguished host, Katie Jacobs, award-winning journalist and former Editor of HR Magazine, the conversation is designed to challenge perspectives, uncover strategic insights, and foster meaningful dialogue among C-suite and senior HR leaders.

Invest or Divest? The Question HR Can No Longer Avoid

From the boardroom to the headlines, Diversity, Equality,  Equity & Inclusion (DEE&I) is facing renewed scrutiny.

Legal challenges. Political shifts. Economic tension. Major organisations—including Meta, McDonald’s, and Amazon—have scaled back or restructured DEE&I efforts. In the UK, a recent government report has challenged the evidence base behind  many corporate inclusion practices.

In this climate, the question is no longer rhetorical:  Should we invest or divest in DEE&I?

This is a member event.
