Our presenters, Ada, Mike, and Renate will cover:
1. Considerations that businesses need to take into account when reopening its doors to employees and customers to ensure a safe and inclusive transition
2. Mindful organization strategies to enhance workers’ engagement with workers with diverse needs
3. Benchmarking your current state and planning for new phase of business
