Deputy City Manager Ken Chandler joined CVB Marketing Communication Vice President Tiffany Russell, APR, and CVB Community Outreach and Relationship Development representative Teresa Diaz, APR, recently at the 4th Annual Eastern Virginia Diversity & Inclusion Conference. Held at the Convention Center, this professional development conference offered a choice of five workshop tracks, a panel discussion by workshop leaders and an invigorating keynote address by Gloria Goins, Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer for Bon Secours Health Systems. Many city employees took advantage of this opportunity to learn best practices, trends and challenges in ensuring workplaces are diverse and inclusive for all.
Distinctive Gourmet lead the charge with their outstanding food, beverage and usual stellar service and The Whitlock Group kept the workshop equipment and presenters on point despite a wide range of multiple meeting rooms and needs. DCM Chandler presented on the subject of diversifying the leadership pipeline. Teresa led and moderated the panel discussion and Tiffany was a presenter during the “Women in Leadership: Public & Private Sectors” workshop. Congrats to all involved for a job well done.
