Diversity & Inclusion Forum for Wine & Hospitality Professionals [ONLINE]
Event description
The hospitality industry is based on welcoming guests and offering them just that – hospitality – in a comfortable and nurturing environment.
But as industry professionals, do we actually do enough to help our colleagues and peers feel welcome and supported in the workplace?Â
What needs to change for the industry to become more inclusive?
----
To gain a greater understanding of what Wine & Hospitality Professionals view as being barriers to both entry and progression within the hospitality industry, the Sommeliers Australia D & I Working Group is hosting this online forum.
Sommeliers Australia members and other industry professionals keen to bring ideas, energy and positive action to this space are all invited to join the discussion.
The forum discussion will be based around gender equity, with a focus on recruitment, inclusive and flexible environments, leadership, workplace behaviour, etc.
The 90 minute forum will be moderated by Dr Bree Gorman, a specialist consultant in the Diversity & Inclusion arena.
TO REGISTER:
Registration to attend the Forum is essential. All registered attendees will be emailed the Zoom link and access info.
Registration closes at 4pm, Monday 7 June.
