ACC MN Elimination of Bias CLE Program: Pathways to Success

Beginning at Noon on Thursday, February 24, 2022, our panel of high-profile current and former GCs and CLOs will discuss ways that ACC Minnesota members can engage in efforts to attract and retain diverse legal professionals in rewarding careers in Minnesota. Likewise, the panelists will address challenges, opportunities, and key learnings from their own careers.  

These topics will guide the conversation:

• Diversity statistics that set the stage and guide us to action.
• Insights into our panelists' career journeys, how they arrived at their current roles, and their journey with DEI and ESG throughout their careers.
• Practical action steps that participants can implement to further the dialogue and implement effective change to support DEI and ESG in their legal departments, in their companies and in the legal industry.
   

Panelists:

• Cornell Boggs, Of Counsel and Senior Strategic Advisor, Quarles & Brady LLP; Former General Counsel of Toys "R" Us and Dow Corning, and Vice Chair of the Thrivent Financial Board of Directors (Moderator)
• James L. Chosy, Senior Executive Vice President and General Counsel, U.S. Bank
• Laura Graf, Chief Legal Officer, Ryan Companies

This "Pathways to Success: Reflections on How to Engage and Advance Lawyer Diversity and DEI and ESG Initiatives" webinar is open to ACC members and in-house counsel guests. Program admission is free for ACC members.
