NEW YORK, May 11, 2020 – DPAA, the leading global organization for all advertising and content outside the home, announced today that its next WE.DOOH (Women’s Empowerment in Digital Out-of-Home) webinar will focus on “Innovation Through Inclusivity.” As with the previous two WE.DOOH webinars held during the stay-at-home pandemic period, this May 19 (11am ET) event will be open to DPAA members and non-members alike. Registration is now open.
 
Studies have shown that inclusive work cultures benefit from stronger performance results, better decisions and accelerated innovation. And business that value diverse perspectives attract valuable new talent.
 
“Innovation Through Inclusivity” will examine the actionable steps that attendees can take immediately to build a more inclusive work culture. Participants will:
 

  • Understand the latest research on how diverse teams are accelerating growth.
  • Recognize barriers that are holding them back from achieving this potential.
  • Learn actionable strategies to overcome challenges to building a more inclusive work culture.

 
Two WE.DOOH webinars held in April – “Sharpening Your Negotiating Skills,” Parts I and II, each attracted more than 340 participants.
