On April 21, Tapestry Networks' Marsha Ershaghi Hames led a panel at the Workplace Equity Summit hosted by Syndio and NYSE.

The key workplace equity metrics and data points that boards want to see
How to translate workplace equity data into language that resonates with board members
The importance and impact of board diversity
The role of board members in actively promoting workplace equity and holding management accountable for progress

Thank you to the panelists including Toni Bush, President, JADD Capital LLC; Mark Mulhern, Board of Directors, Intercontinental Exchange, and Chair of ICE’s Compensation Committee; and Alicia Syrett, Chairwoman, Digimarc, and founder, Madam Chair.
