Description

The Center for Economic Inclusion is an organization headquartered in Minnesota that works with public and private sector leaders to close racial wealth and income gaps and build inclusive regional economies. Nathan Arnosti, Director of Analytics at the Center for Economic Inclusion, and Nashan McKelton, Director of Sales and Growth, will describe several data-informed analytical tools – the Racial Equity Dividends Indices for the Public and Private Sectors – that the Center offers partner organizations to build, and benefit from, inclusive workplaces. The conversation will give participants opportunities to understand these tools and explore how to apply racial equity standards to their own organizations.
