All Things ERGs
In this episode, herdacious host Lorelei chats with Kellie Sauls about establishing ERGs in the workplace. ERGs, or employee resource groups, are employee coalitions assembled to fulfill a common goal or mission they wish to see reflected in the workplace. Equipped with her DE&I and ERG leadership expertise, Kellie walks us through the steps of bringing ERG plans into fruition so we can achieve a workplace that encourages its employees to see the value in their professional contributions. From welcoming inclusive, sometimes crusty support (more on that in the episode) to scouting an executive sponsor qualified to lead us down the road, Kellie helps us realize that the power behind building a successful and productive ERG derives from company-wide collaboration. Whether we have a direct stake in an ERGs' initiative or just want to be an ally to our colleagues, membership into this club is not exclusive. So, come one, come all and enter the world of all things ERGs!
