To gather more insight, People Excellence hosted a series of conversations at the institutional and divisional level in spring 2022, 让我们直接听取教职员工的意见. Now, 我们邀请您来探索我们的流程, as well as the themes, recommendations and action plans that were developed as a result of these conversations.

Institutional focus groups were held in April 2022 in partnership with Huron, who facilitated discussions. These focus groups explored three interconnected themes that emerged from the results of the 教职员工校园气候调查.
