Partner Ronald Machen and Senior Associate Cadene Brooks co-authored with Spencer Overton, president of the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies think tank, a Bloomberg Law article on their toolkit for boosting Corporate America’s diversity in compliance with the law.
Excerpt: Our five-part toolkit aims to inform employers of the barriers to equal employment for Black professionals and offers achievable recommendations. It provides insights on understanding bias and aligning incentives to values; best practices for improving hiring, recruitment, and retention of Black professionals in corporate America (from entry-level positions to the boardroom); and guidance on third-party business relationships—all while minimizing legal risk.
