AdaMarie Virtual Coffee Chat

What’s Shifting at Work: Hiring, Belonging & Policy in 2025

DATE • TIME

Join us for a timely virtual coffee chat on the state of the workplace equity in 2025.

As recent executive orders and shifting political priorities impact corporate DEI efforts, many employers are re-evaluating how they approach inclusion, talent development, and compliance. This conversation will explore what these changes mean for your organization - and how to stay committed to equity while adapting to today’s realities.

In this session, we’ll discuss:

  • How executive orders from the current administration are shifting (or appearing to shift) the legal landscape and how companies are responding.

  • The increasing value of cultivating inclusion and belonging in the workplace, especially when the future of programs like ERGs, BRGs, and access-focused accelerators are uncertain.

  • Balancing internal and external pushback — from those calling for more investment in DEI and those questioning its impact on their own opportunities.

  • Hiring trends in a shifting market — how some companies are taking advantage of top talent on the move, and why this is a key moment to diversify your pipeline.
