The Association of Legal Administrators, Metropolitan Detroit Chapter, will host a Breakfast Educational Meeting presented by the Center for Automotive Diversity, Inclusion & Advancement on Thursday, January 13, from 8 to 10 a.m. at the Troy Marriott's Dennison Junior Ballroom, 200 W. Big Beaver Rd. in Troy.
The Center for Automotive Diversity, Inclusion & Advancement (CADIA) is a learning and advisory organization focused on diversity equity and inclusion. Its mission is to double the number of diverse leaders in the automotive industry by 2030. CADIA is championing diverse talent, driving systemic change, and supporting leadership commitment.
There has been a lot of talk about Unconscious Bias as it related to diversity, equity, and inclusion. By understanding that all are biased, everyone can become more aware of their thoughts and actions when relating to others. Everyone can learn to pause and put conscious thought behind our actions.
During the January 13 Breakfast Educational Meeting, Cheryl Thompson of CADIA will lead a conversation to:
- Identify and discuss specific types of bias and begin thinking about them in new ways
- Understand how bias can show up in the legal world and discuss those implications
- Recognize and address bias and its impact
- Move toward playing an advocacy role in influencing those with power and influence
ALA members and business partners can attend the meeting for free. Guests can attend for $20. Registration is required at https://aladetroit.org.
