Hello, first of all thanks for your time and interest in this repository. This project shows and makes visible non-profit communities that volunteer and provide free training to their community, for which I appreciate the mention of programs designed for companies. and events for the public of Lifelabslearning, but I consider that it does not coincide with the main objective of the project.
However, Resource for allies is a section that I had not considered and I think it is a great contribution.

- If you advertise jobs - [the wording you use impacts who applies](https://www.glassdoor.com/employers/blog/10-ways-remove-gender-bias-job-listings/) (great candidates might be self-excluding). | ||
- If you hire candidates - [the techniques you use impact who gets through](https://hbr.org/2017/06/7-practical-ways-to-reduce-bias-in-your-hiring-process) (you might not hire or promote the best candidates). | ||
- If you intend to retain employees - [the culture of your organisation impacts who wants to stay](https://leanin.org/women-in-the-workplace-report-2022/were-in-the-midst-of-a-great-breakup) (including genuine inclusion of diversity and equitable opportunities). |

It can be hard to know where to start, but you're not the first in wanting to implment a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion program. | ||

Trainers such as LifeLabs run sessions to highlight ways de-biasing improves your interview process (and how to do it at your company). | ||

I'm not sure of the purpose of this section. Could you explain me?
Love the page! Awareness of these programs is very important for getting SUPPORT to members of under-represented groups (I certainly have benefited from LOTS MYSELF!)
When it comes to implementing change within businesses, I have had many a conversation in my career about both the why and how of DEI (fair enough: we're all busy, and it can be hard to know where to start)
These are some points I use to explain the relevance to management and get funding for structural changes
