Candid Conversations with Marcy Melvin | Talking About DEI When We Can’t Talk About DEI
Members-Only
October 9 @ 11:00 am – 12:00 pm EDT
CBHL Candid Conversations provide an informal platform for connecting and networking with other CBHL members, fostering an environment where we can learn from one another’s experiences. Led by a CBHL member or partner, these sessions are designed to facilitate the exchange of valuable leadership insights, skills, and support. Occurring at least once a month, Candid Conversations are open to all CBHL members.
