❤️ A word from our Sponsor
Building DEI takes time. But how do you know what's working? What's not? And when it's time to change your approach?
It can feel overwhelming to know what to monitor throughout your hiring process to make the biggest impact to your organisation's D&I efforts.
Join Otta for a 1-hour masterclass as we try to decode the key metrics that impact DEI success, and how to identify when you may need to change course.
Learn from leading Talent and Diversity pros as they share what worked (and what didn’t):

How to pivot like a ballerina in the turbulent age of AI
Recommended by LinkedIn
In the last TTC event Yasar Ahmad shared how his philosophy is to be a fast follower, learn from those doing it and do it faster and better! Angie Westbrock, CEO of Standard AI shares this article and her thoughts on AI; All successful companies need to move with the winds of change. The best way to learn how to pivot is to observe those who have done so already. The agility required for corporate pivoting also applies to personal switch-ups.
