This year's ELTC is designed to give  participants skills to build high-performance teams that are innovative,  adaptable and able to successfully cross-collaborate to produce targeted  results. Agile leaders are able to create teams that are analytical, have  strong values, and a sense of connectedness with team members and other  stakeholders.

The ELTC meets the professional development needs of senior  leaders in the field of equal employment opportunity (EEO), Human Resources  (HR) and diversity and inclusion (D&I).
