Intersecting DEI with Sustainability to Propel Growth

This session explores the powerful intersection between diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives and sustainability practices. In today’s transportation landscape, nearly every Bid, RFP, and contract asks for your company’s stance on ESG. Organizations are increasingly recognizing the importance of integrating these two critical areas to drive meaningful change and foster a more inclusive and sustainable future.

Attendees will gain insights into how embracing DEI initiatives can positively impact organizational growth, improve employee retention, and adapt inclusive marketing and hiring strategies.   We will provide 10 easy steps to foster a more inclusive workplace and tips and tricks to begin or advance your sustainability efforts.
