More than two thirds of Americans find companies with strong diversityequity, and inclusion values more relevant than other brands, and 80% of Americans believe companies need to recognize their role in systemic racial inequality by acknowledging past mistakes or biases.

The time for talking is over. Corporations must make authentic, long-term commitments to diversity, equity and inclusion.

The SB’20 Just Brands conference, taking place virtually on August 18-19, will help you look closely at existing policies and behaviors, and identify strategies that will authentically address areas for improvement. The two-day program examines diversity, equity, and inclusion across an organization’s entire ecosystem. We’ll explore how brands can become DEI leaders across all business verticals, including marketing, supply chain, operations, HR, leadership, and more.

Program highlights include:

  • Guidance to improve performance around hiring, training, and reskilling employees in ways that actively contribute to solving injustice and inequality crises.

  • Making the most of supply chain management, purchasing and procurement as allies in the fight against discrimination and inequality.

  • Prioritizing key interventions and choosing the most impactful areas of business leadership to make progress 

  • Case studies on using brand activism to heal communities

  • + much more!
