Workshop 5

A Real Company Making Real Changes
Mark Craig and Margaret Williams, Huntington Ingalls Industries; Rosemary Cox, DCI Consulting Group, Inc.

When statistical disparities occur, researching and making meaningful changes, where appropriate, is critical.  We will discuss how Huntington Ingalls Industries is making impactful changes to the selection process based on the results of that research and explore how their DEI program works together with their compliance programs.  Participants will take away practical advice on making change, how to research results and strategy on working with top managers to drive change.
