The conference will take place at the Hyatt Regency Baltimore Inner Harbor.
The group Blacks in I/O Psychology’s (BIOP) second annual conference will join diverse students and leaders to build fairer workplaces through data-driven strategy.
The conference serves as the sole event dedicated to Black professionals in industrial-organizational psychology.
Aside from networking opportunities, the conference will host a keynote panel with Black women business leaders in I/O psychology and include research presentations detailing the future of workplace environments and culture as well as the benefits of data-driven decision-making.
“Conversations about workplace equity, DEI, and merit-based hiring have never been more urgent,” Cheeks said in a press release. “This conference provides a space where Black I/O professionals can connect, collaborate, and drive meaningful change in the industry.”
By building a community of Black I/O psychology experts and enthusiasts, BIOP also aims to prioritize DEI efforts from academia to corporate America at a time when these initiatives are in jeopardy.
