PHOENIX, AZ, March 21, 2022 /24-7PressRelease/ — ETMA, the Enterprise Technology Management Association, members and guests will have an opportunity to learn strategies and actionable ideas in a workshop on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) March 25 at the San Diego, California conference.

Martin Luther King III said, “Leadership starts with you.” The ETMA conference brings together CEOs and Presidents from the industry that are well positioned to implement changes in their firms and act as catalysts to advance DEI in our industry. This will require a conscious, consistent effort to recruit a more diverse workforce.

She is also a principal and chief revenue officer at Advantix, and accomplished business leader, with more than 20 years of experience in the telecommunications industry. Natasha Royer Coons, said, “This workshop will be a ‘roll up your sleeves’, let’s have a real talk about proven strategies and successful tactics. Our membership will not only gain insight but will leave with the ability to either begin, accelerate or enhance their DEI programs.”

The workshop will also feature Rachel (Fuller) Almodovar, Training and Organizational Development Coordinator at UC San Diego who said “Diversity, Equity and & Inclusion supports employee engagement and strengthens employee retention in competitive markets.” As a human resources professional with over 10 years of experience she will show participants how they must identify, develop, and connect talent at all levels within organizations. She is skilled in coaching, leadership development and project management with a rich background in the hospitality, higher-education, and health care industries.

The all-star panel also includes Karen Harris, Staff Development Coordinator for the County of San Diego Health & Human Services Agency.
