Learn and engage in diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA)

Through a partnership with Momentum Professional Strategy Partners, WMFHA has developed an executive leadership learning lab series! Members will learn and engage in diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) best practices through facilitated training.
This course will be made available to one participant from each member company to join with their peers in an interactive learning experience to drive meaningful results.
Each candidate will be required to attend all three equity and inclusion courses to be held in 2022. The curriculum will include all candidates’ points of view, perspectives, and shared experiences. This opportunity will be limited to less than 40 members.
