Human Resources - Centering Equity and Managing Risk
Details
About the event
Executive directors and managers can spend so much time putting out fires and addressing daily activities, that it can be difficult to focus on your organization’s policies and procedures. Creating equitable HR policies can help retain staff and protect your organization from legal risk. Learn more about when to seek external support, such as through an HR consultant or attorney, and what questions you should be asking with your team and board. This interactive session will create a space for everyone in the room to share and learn from one another. Taos programs are presented in partnership with the Taos Community Foundation.
