In this Professional Development Workshop, we invite participants to explore the connection between faith-based employee resource groups (ERGs) and DEI strategy and practice, and how such efforts impact business outcomes. In a three-part session we will discuss the need for and challenges associated with faith-based ERGs in organizations; engage with a panel of employees from diverse faith traditions who are participants in their organizations’ faith-based ERGs; and work collaboratively to generate ideas for future research and teaching.
