KC Partners have Key Involvement in Board Diversity Panel Discussion

Kansas City Partner Jim Lawrence will moderate a panel discussion of how to create a diverse board of directors, presented by the Kansas City Tomorrow Alumni Association (KCTAA) on April 22. Kansas City office Managing Partner Wesley Fields will join the discussion as a featured speaker.

This free, virtual event is for those seeking to increase board diversity at any business. Diverse boards are more likely to attract diverse donors, partners and clients. Improving board diversity can help attract diverse talent, which leads to improvements in innovation and a broader perspective on projects.

Lawrence, a KCTAA board member, will lead the discussion of how to create a board of directors that embraces diversity and builds a more inclusive environment. The panel will outline steps to developing a board that attracts individuals with a variety of skills, perspectives, backgrounds and resources.

Also joining the panel are Klassie Alcine, president of KC Common Good, and Chandra Clark, executive director of Boston-based nonprofit VHL Alliance.

The event is free but advance registration is required to receive login details.
