Implicit Bias: Me, You, and Our Judges Too

In this sobering session, our panel of experts will take a closer look at how the investment and legal communities could collaboratively more effectively in raising awareness on this issue and effecting real change.

This panel will focus on issues regarding gender, race, diversity and belonging, and how to build a resilient workplace.

As legal departments around the country look to develop more inclusive work environments, the question becomes how to maintain the momentum so that the initiatives of today elicit positive change in the generations to come. The discussion will center around avoiding pitfalls and fatigue when developing effective and lawful DEI programs as well as how to operationalize these diversity efforts.

When you think of “insider threats” it's difficult to not immediately default to privacy and cyber threats within your business. However, over the last decade, a new workplace hazard has emerged, one that is far more insidious, and unfortunately, becoming far too common. These threats can be anything from a disgruntled former employee, a violent spouse or family member, or one of your very own employees dealing with mental health challenges. Having a workplace violence framework has become vital to the safety and security of your workforce. Panelists in this session will discuss identifying threats, getting ahead of incidents, and ensuring legal, HR and security are all on the same page
