MIT Diversity Leadership Congress

"Our goal is to help give people a better understanding of what is possible in their leadership roles and to discuss how we can make those possibilities real at MIT" (Kochan).

Thomas A. Kochan is the George Maverick Bunker Professor of Management at MIT's Sloan School of Management and Co-Director of both the MIT Workplace Center and of the Institute for Work and Employment Research. He will moderate a panel discussion that will share successful diversity leadership stories at MIT's upcoming Diversity Leadership Congress.

MIT is taking the initiative to bring together 300 of its academics, administrative and student leaders at a Diversity Leadership Congress. This is a step in the right direction to make a serious and meaningful change on issues of diversity and inclusion. President Hockfield stands firm on this project because he will be welcoming all on 18th November, 2008 to the Diversity Leadership Congress. MIT has an effort of solving critical, difficult and appalling world problems, and has taken on a much needed challenge on issues of Diversity Leadership. This long awaited type of leadership need to be discussed openly and publicly. I commend MIT for its leading effort for an open forum and discussion on Diversity Leadership and inclusion.
