Gain practical knowledge and inspiration to make your Black Employee Resource Group (ERG) a bigger agent of change.

Omek invites you to connect with external employee networks, learn best practices and exchange ideas on how to amplify the voice of your ERG in terms of building an inclusive and productive workplace.

As part of our agenda, we will explore different ways to take Black ERGs to the next level in terms of increasing their impact, interaction with leadership and employee engagement.

We will start with a panel discussion and then move on to roundtables designed to seek solutions to various challenges ERGs face.

The Black Employee Networking Night is designed for Black ERGs leaders, members and sponsors interested in growing the potential of Black ERGs and exploring ways for effective collaboration.

Join us for an evening of active learning, networking and sharing your experiences in organizing and driving change.
