Featured Program
Diversity and Inclusion in the Legal Profession: Addressing Implicit Bias
Using the production of a new legal drama being shot for television as the setting, participants are challenged to cast roles, alter scripts, and make story suggestions to improve diversity and inclusion in the fictional firm portrayed in the show. These activities will help the participant understand the perspectives of real people in similar, real-life workplace situations and appreciate the negative impact of poor diversity and inclusion practices on people and organizations.
