Navigating Fostering Inclusion and Diversity in the Workplace Given The Recent Executive Orders​ 

Presented by: 

Brooke Corr, CM/F, SHRM-SCP
The Peace Project Leadership Institute

As national conversations and legal landscapes around workplace diversity, equity, and inclusion continue to evolve, many organizations are facing uncertainty about how to move forward with their DEI efforts.

This important session, led by seasoned mediator and SHRM-SCP professional Brooke Corr, will provide context, legal insight, and practical guidance for maintaining inclusive and equitable practices in today’s environment.

What to Expect: This workshop will explore the recent Executive Orders and proposed legislation that have raised questions about the future of DEI initiatives in both public and private sectors. With clarity and care, Brooke will guide participants through:

• The current legal status of Executive Orders and bills such as H.R. 9495

• What these actions do—and do not—impact under the U.S. Constitution and Federal Civil Rights Law, including Title VII

• SHRMs’ BEAM Framework (Belonging Enhanced by Access Through Merit) as a possible roadmap forward

• Resources for continued learning and legal compliance

• Tools to build inclusive cultures while minimizing risk

Participants will engage in thoughtful, collaborative discussion while gaining practical tools to foster inclusive workplaces that align with current legal standards.
