Academic and Student Affairs Panel Discussion
PANEL DISCUSSION:
THE JOURNEY TO THE C-SUITE: EDUCATIONAL ACCESS AND SUCCESSES IN CORPORATE SPACES
Thursday, May 19, 2022 | 5:30 p.m. – 6:45 p.m. | Virtual Meeting via Zoom
Creating a pathway for exceptional talent to battle the lack of diversity and representation in corporate spaces was not the impact that SEEDS intended to have 30 years ago. However, through intentional programming, targeted support, and corporate partnerships, SEEDS has seen a direct correlation between the work that it does to prepare scholars for competitive schools and their success in professional post-secondary experiences.
As high schools, colleges, and corporations continue conversations of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB), these institutions which historically have been steeped in systems built on privilege are prioritizing change and reimagining their hiring practices, and cultures. As a part of this shift, they are partnering with SEEDS and similar access organizations to source high-quality and diverse talent for internships and full-time positions.
PANEL DISCUSSION
