We invite our NACRO members and network to join Tony Peebles (Director, Diversity Advancement & Corporate Relations at Case Western Reserve University) and Katheryne Rehberg (Director, Business Development, Office of Corporate Relations at the University of Illinois) in an honest dialogue around diversity and the critical role universities play in solving the challenges industry face in fostering a diverse workforce. In this episode we chat with Idalia Hill, Director of Strategy & Operations for CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion. CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion is the largest CEO-driven business commitment to advance diversity and inclusion within the workplace.

The long term goal of NACRO and its membership is to engage industry in a setting that allows for open discussion while sharing best practices with peers. As corporate philanthropy and R&D evolves towards increasingly collaborative activities, NACRO will aid in defining these roles. As corporations expand globally but work locally, they seek the “front door” to an academic institution that a university corporate relations office can provide.
