By Uncategorized

Jan.
11th

 Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is about creating an environment where everyone feels welcome and is provided an opportunity to contribute and participate. Initiatives have made pivotal strides in recent years and it’s up to each organization to develop, implement and protect DEI within the workplace.

What does DEI look like in marketing?

Emily will share Omnicom’s strategy for driving DEI across the organization, with the national and global brands they serve, and its impact. She will also share ideas on DEI initiatives and strategies that advertisers, marketers, and strategic communicators can apply to their own teams and clients to better diversify our industry in Oklahoma.
