Chief executives from across the public and private sector will share their views on delivering inclusive leadership in the wake of a crisis in a panel discussion at the 2021 Workplace Diversity, Equity and Inclusion conference in Auckland later this year.
The Building Back Better session features on day two of the conference and will be moderated by Dr Nicola Ngawati, the Director (Kaiwhakahaere Matua) of the Mana Wāhine Joint Roopū at the Ministry for Women.

The CEO Panel is part of a jam-packed agenda for the two-day conference, which also includes panel sessions on Building Māori And Pasifika Leaders To Participate And Progress In The Workplace and Utilising Neurodiversity As A Competitive Edge.
Other topics that will be discussed include psychosocial health and safety in workplaces, creating an age-inclusive workplace, embedding intersectionality to drive business outcomes and creating space for ethnicity and faith in the workplace.
The conference is being held on Tuesday, 31 August and Wednesday, 1 September.
