EVENT AGENDA- 9-9:45 a.m. : The Female Recession: How to Support Working Women
In this session, we will explore the trend lines, how the pandemic has disproportionately impacted women in senior roles, working mothers and women of color, and how companies can work to support and retain women by integrating flexible support models and family-forward policies.

- Alexa Kramer, Director of Government Affairs Grand Rapids Chamber of Commerce
- Amy Cell, President/Chief Matchmaker, Amy Cell Talent
- 9:45-10:30 a.m. : Tapping Hidden Talent Pools to Fill Your Workforce Needs
While it may seem scary to hire someone who doesn’t look perfect on paper, there are many advantages to hiring individuals from underutilized talent pools, including veterans, individuals with some type of disability, returning citizens, the elderly and more.
Join us for this discussion about how broadening your definition of “diversity” in the hiring process and taking a chance on someone different than your typical candidate may be a risk worth taking.
Speakers:
- Michelle Crockett, Chief Diversity Officer at Miller, Canfield, Paddock and Stone
- Jennifer Llewellyn, Manager of Workforce Development at Oakland County and Director of Oakland County Michigan Works! Agency
