Join us on Thursday, February 6th at 12pm ET / 9am PT, for an essential discussion featuring Melanie Naranjo (Chief People Officer, Ethena), Chantelle Egan (Partner, Head of Advice & Counsel Practice Group, Medina McKelvey), and Brandis Anderson (General Counsel, Ethena) as they unpack the implications of the recent U.S. Executive Orders and what they mean for workplace DEI initiatives, recruiting practices, and compliance strategies.

In the wake of the recent US Executive Orders, many HR, Compliance, and Legal professionals have been left with a whole lot of questions. What does this mean for existing DEI initiatives, including: recruiting practices and ERGs? How will this impact competing state laws, especially as they pertain to gender in the workplace? What action should you be taking?

In this webinar, we’ll lean on legal expertise from legal experts for a deep dive into what these Executive Orders mean, what they don’t mean, and how to make sure you’re building a strategic action plan, including smart internal communications — to your employees and leadership team alike.

What you’ll learn:

  • The impact of the U.S. Executive Orders on DEI and compliance programs
  • Actionable steps to build a strategic plan for your organization
  • Tips for communicating effectively with employees and leadership as you navigate this process
