Creating a Diverse Workforce: Inclusive Hiring Practices for Local Governments

Thursday, October 28, 2021
10:00 AM - 11:00 AM
Cost: $35

Webinar Overview:
Diverse and inclusive workplaces benefit from a bigger talent pool, increased employee engagement and trust, improved performance and decision-making, and greater innovation. But inclusive hiring takes much more than simply avoiding discrimination (though that is important too). It requires dedicated initiatives to remove barriers to underrepresented groups and to help overcome unconscious bias in the workplace.

Educational Objectives:
The work needed to create a diverse workforce and a culture of inclusivity is not always easy and you may be met with resistance along the way. Join us to learn more about inclusive hiring practices and strategies for dealing with challenges that may arise.

Audience:
Human resources staff, management, attorneys/legal staff of local governments or private attorneys with local government clients, and other staff engaged in the hiring process.

Presenters:

  • Rachel Bender Turpin, Madrona Law Group, PLLC. Rachel is a member of Madrona Law Group PLLC, where she represents cities, counties, and special purpose districts in a variety of municipal matters including labor and employment, open government and public records, eminent domain, public procurement and contracting, land use, legislation, and policy drafting. Prior to co-founding Madrona Law Group, Rachel spent 10 years at a boutique municipal law firm, where she represented public agencies of all sizes, from the firm’s largest client to its smallest.
  • Juan Padilla, Principal Consultant, JC Padilla Consulting, LLC. Juan specializes in all aspects of human resources principles and practices, specializing in hiring practices and trends, as well as employee and labor relations. He has over 25 years of leadership and management experience in the private and public business sectors at federal, state, county, and city levels, most recently as the HR Director for the City of Tukwila.
