Industry Partner Workshop | October 2018

Let’s change the conversation…

A distinctive part of an industry partnership with GATE is to engage with university researchers on the cutting-edge topics of the day. In our second Industry Partner Workshop, we welcomed a keynote by Jamillah Bowman Williams (Associate Professor of Law, Georgetown Law) on “Breaking Down Bias” and discussed several other topics, including:

• The business case vs. the legal case for diversity
• The promotion gap
• Flexible work policies
• Pay transparency

Our researchers guided participants through a series of talks on these issues and presented their latest findings.
