Toolkit
Companies have long realized the power of affinity networks to help their employees navigate culture, offer networking, professional and personal development opportunities, and to ultimately attract and retain employees.
This toolkit is a product of the collective knowledge from some of Cincinnati’s top employers. In it you will find resources to help you launch, activate, manage and grow Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) in your organization. You are welcome to create your own binder by downloading, customizing and using any of the information and templates included in this toolkit.
