Following the success of the first edition of this conference, this year we invite practitioners to join the academic discussion and share their experiences, ideas and thoughts about diversity management in organizations.
What diversity dimensions are relevant at the workplace? How do organizations manage diversity and inclusion, and how are they perceived internally and externally? Do various employees truly embrace a culture of inclusion and fully understand what diversity & inclusion means? What organizational processes might unintentionally hamper inclusion? What can your managers do to more effectively manage team diversity and reap its benefits?
These and other questions will be discussed within the context of scientific research and practitioners’ experience. Our aim is cross-fertilization. The program of the conference is rich, combining the academic evidence on organizational diversity (through scientific lectures and poster sessions) with practitioners’ testimonials about their concrete reality of diversity. In addition, if you want to learn how to concretely set up a Diversity and Inclusion Action Plan, please join our workshop, animated by experienced diversity experts.
This conference will provide the opportunity to network and collaborate with attendees. Our aim is to build bridges, not only between academics, but also between practitioners and academics, as we believe that only together we can bring about change that truly matters.
This two-day conference will take place on November 14 & 15 2019 at Brussels School of Economics and Management.

The Brexit negotiations are in a difficult phase and it is hard to predict what relationship the UK will have with the EU in the future. The UK is most likely to exit the Single Market on 29 March 2019 or 31 December 2020. Financial institutions based in the UK will thus lose their passporting rights to the European market. This conference will examine some of the most important issues raised by this profound regime change.
If you would like to attend this event please enrol here, or write to Emmanuel Poulle (<epoulle@escpeurope.eu>) with details of your name and organisation.
