C100 Webinar: "Master Classes: Maintaining the Effectiveness of Equity Initiatives"

The Committee of 100 (C100) is pleased to invite you to attend the fortieth Committee of 100 Asian American Career Ceilings and Organizational Equity Initiatives event. This will be a new program under the title of “Master Classes for Organizations: Managing Equity Initiatives” where they will feature experts who will conduct tutorials on various topics related to how organizations (corporate, non-profit, government) can more effectively manage their equity initiatives. These Master Classes for Organizations programs are separate from the Master Classes for Individuals programs that focus on giving advice to Asian Americans as individuals who are dealing with career ceiling issues.

The first organizational Master Class will be on the topic of "Master Classes for Organizations: Maintaining the Effectiveness of Equity Initiatives in the Current Environment” and will feature two experts who will provide a tutorial.

The two instructors will be Jenny Yang, Former Chair of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and Joyce Chang, Global Head of Research for J.P. Morgan and Executive Sponsor for J.P. Morgan Chase’s network for employees of Asian heritage (AsPIRE).

During this webcast, the two instructors will not only briefly summarize their careers, but will focus on providing advice and lessons to the audience on how organizations can continue to be effective with regard to organizational equity initiatives and promoting an equal playing field. Despite the challenges facing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, Employee Resource Groups, organizational initiatives focused on similar goals, and non-profits providing resources along the same lines, this is an important time to reflect on how to effectively advance opportunities for everyone. The Committee of 100 hopes the audience will include individuals who are involved in or managing the equity initiatives of their organizations, whether they are corporate, non-profit, or government entities, and that this Master Class will provide useful insights for the audience.

Peter Young, Chair of the Initiative and a Committee of 100 Member, will be the moderator. After the conclusion of the fireside chat, there will be a Q&A session during which members of the audience may ask questions. The webinar will be held on January 15, 2025 from 6:00 to 7:00 pm ET (3:00 to 4:00 pm PT). There is no fee for the webcast.
