Gender in workplace conference set

Oklahoma State University’s Spears School of Business is presenting the first ever #TimesUp half-day conference April 18 in Oklahoma City.

The conference is from 8:30-11 a.m. at Cole’s Garden, with an optional luncheon session offered afterward with Moira Forbes, publisher of ForbesWoman. She will be speaking on “Leading through Power Change” at the OSU Executive Management Briefing from noon-1:30 p.m. at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, across the street from Cole’s Garden.

Participants will explore the issues surrounding gender roles in the workplace, legal considerations and how to promote a culture of inclusion and respect. Those attending the conference will better understand how these events impact their workplace and what they can do to be proactive in the workplace. Three sessions will be offered, and will be followed by a discussion panel.

Individual registration for the #TimesUp conference only is $125 per person. Registration for both the #TimesUp conference and the Moira Forbes Executive Management Briefing luncheon is $210 per person. A group discount is available for registrations of eight or more participants. Sponsorships are also available at this time.
