Raising the Bar: Using DEI Work to Inform Performance Management

When schools implement diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, they often seek to educate employees on their awareness of such issues as implicit bias and white privilege. With this work comes the challenge of addressing and correcting employee behavior that is not necessarily legally actionable discrimination but nonetheless erodes inclusivity. On February 22, 2022, Venable attorney Grace Lee will present “Raising the Bar: Using DEI Work to Inform Performance Management” at the National Business Officers Association 2022 Annual Meeting.  Learn about some of the common challenges when seeking to correct employee conduct as well as potential response strategies. Learn too about the legal issues that schools can face in their performance management approach.
