Keynotes
Keynote by speaker Dr. Michael Kimmel: The Gender Equality Advantage
Many corporations are committed to increasing gender equality in the workplace, but most of the time we think that means simply developing better policies for women. Men rarely see themselves as stakeholders in the gender equality discussion.
For more than 30 years, Michael Kimmel has been working with corporations, governments, public sector organizations and NGOs, to engage men to support gender equality. Not only because it's the right thing to do (which it is) or even because it's good for business (which it is), but because it's also good for men themselves.
Audience takeaways:
Kimmel also offers a broader discussion of Diversity and Inclusion that shows how greater diversity by race, ethnicity, and sexuality, also benefits profitability and return on investment, corporate culture, and everyone's working experience.
Kimmel shows that gender equality is not only right and fair, but it's also smart. It's not zero-sum, but a win-win all around.

Audience takeaways:
This presentation engages men as allies, and doesn't demonize them, and therefore encourages and enables women and men to begin a dialogue about workplace dynamics that are based on trust, collegiality, and mutual respect.
