Event Description: As part of a week-long celebration of International Women’s Day, TEMPO is hosting our monthly TEMPO Talks session on IWD’s 2023 theme of “Embracing Equity.” This year’s theme challenges us to imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A world that’s diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Join us in a moderated panel discussion led by TEMPO member Kimberly Kane as we explore what Embracing Equity for Women in the Workplace looks like in 2023. It is no secret how important women are to Wisconsin’s workforce and economy and that companies must be creating policies that support working women. But has the tide actually turned? As more and more reports come out on the discrepancies between what women leaders actually want and need at work and what their employers are providing, Kimberly will dive into findings of her firm's 2021 State of Working Women in Wisconsin survey, discuss what has changed and what is yet to come. Our panelists will share their own experiences on workplace strategies and policies that have gone into effect right here in Wisconsin to make a more equitable workplace for women, how they got there and what the response has been. Attendees will be equipped to leave this session with knowledge and ideas on how to embrace equity in their own workplaces. Join us as we collectively #EmbraceEquity
