Just a crew from Akron! What an amazing experience attending the Cleveland Cavaliers ERG Summit 3.0 , an incredible day dedicated to fostering relationships, exploring insights, and gaining deeper understand around the critical work of ERG groups across organizations. I was honored to attend a morning session led by Kevin Clayton , who brilliantly spoke about how he has been a catalyst in using DEI frameworks to drive revenue and a culture of inclusivity in his role. In the afternoon, we heard from an amazing panel of leaders including, Mike Lowe, PMP from The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company , and learned how he has had to pivot in his role, while also strengthening ERG groups across the Goodyear ecosystem. It was great running into Sheena F. as well! We concluded our day with open discussions about the power of our collective efforts in driving organizations through Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), sharing best practices, and learning from one another. I left this workshop feeling energized, inspired, and motivated to share this knowledge with our community in Akron. As I work and collaborate with organizations in our region, I’m eager to apply this newfound knowledge to make a positive impact. I want to send a HUGE thank you to Steve Wilt and CAPTRUST for sponsoring this event, and for extending the invite to me and other leaders in Akron. Another thank you to Nic Barlage , and the Rocket Arena team for their steadfast commitment to strengthening Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Lastly a special thank you to Brittany Long , Kristyn Pearson for their warm hospitality and for helping to curate this event for our community. We are all in this fight together, let’s continue to lean on one another as we shape a bright future for the next generation. 🚀🎉😁Pictured: Taylor Flinn , Will Blake , Lori Porter , Brittney Bush hashtag#ERGSummit hashtag#Cavs hashtag#RocketArena hashtag#DiversityEquityandInclusion hashtag#Collaboration hashtag#Leadership
