Churchill Club | Raising the leadership bar in Silicon Valley

Today, the region is all too often in the news for struggles with diversity, inclusion, and lapses in moral judgment. What is the bigger picture around these issues? Is Silicon Valley in a discrimination and moral crisis? If so, how did it get that way—and how can it be undone? What inspiration can we take from the people who helped the region take off and grow? What will it take to foster upstanding attitudes and practices in today’s Silicon Valley leaders and entrepreneurs? HOSTED BY: Skadden Arps Catalog number: 102792605 Lot number: X9335.2021
