The Kellogg Manbassadors are excited to welcome the CEO of one of the country's leading gender and diversity consulting firms to the Global Hub this April. Lawler King, CEO of League of Allies (https://www.leagueofallies.com), will facilitate an hour-long workshop designed to provide Kellogg men with tactical strategies for speaking up when encountered with gender bias.
Lawler is an author, former HR executive, and Wharton MBA who has worked with countless companies, including Cisco, HP, Pfizer, and more, on gender and diversity initiatives.
It can be difficult to deliver feedback to men who exhibit bias toward women either at work or in the locker room. It's particularly difficult when the person behaving this way is a manager or friend. This interactive session will equip men with tested frameworks and tools to empower them to speak up and effectively deliver feedback to counter biased behavior.
