WellSpan Health Diversity and Inclusion Summit

In order to build a work environment where employees feel a sense of being appreciated for their unique qualities, diversity and inclusion require distinct acknowledgement and understanding. As research indicates each are very different components in steps toward creating a uniquely diverse and inclusive culture. This event provides opportunity for participants to recognize benefits of embracing diversity (race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, socio-economic status or physical disability) as well as inclusion (cultural and environmental feelings of belonging). Leaders will work together to design an employee experience which continually promotes performance for a multi-generational, multi-racial, and multi-background workforce based on the 3 Pillars of Inclusion and Diversity.

1. Discuss diversity and inclusion concepts in the context of enhancing recruiting efforts
2. Describe strategies for recruiting a diverse group of GME faculty members and residents
3. List opportunities for developing a recruiting network to enhance the diversity of applicants for GME resident/fellow and faculty positions.
4. Discuss potential future strategies and changes which cultivate an environment of openness and inclusion in GME training programs.
5. Describe recruiting method modifications which ensure the full spectrum of available residency/fellowship and faculty candidates are represented and reachable via future recruiting efforts.
