文/萨哈娜·古普塔

The spring semester’s virtual Dean’s Forum took place on Thursday, 25 March at 12:30 下午至下午二时. With the help of the Baker Scholars, The Baker School of Business and Technology at 皇冠8868 was able to engage in a conversation with Leslie Short, moderated by
Professor Elena Romero of 广告及营销传播.

Leslie is an entrepreneur and currently the CEO and President of the Cavu Group. As an activist and conflict and transformational coach, Leslie, alongside the Cavu Group, offers consultation to Fortune 500 companies on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

Given the current social and political climate, many students showed interest in educating themselves further on these topics of inclusivity and diversity. 学生们问 Ms. Short a variety of questions from dealing with disciminaton to racism at the workplace, 通过她在这个领域的专业知识. 肖特能够提供指导和意见.

这次活动的另一个惊人的吸引力是. 肖特好心送了一张亲笔签名的 copy of her book, Expand Beyond Your Current Culture, to a lucky winner.

It was great to see dozens of students engaging with the conversation and being proactive 以这种方式.
