Bookstores are important fixtures in every community. They serve as places to gather, to find and research new ideas, to explore new worlds, and to find refuge. But bookstores can also be intimidating for people who are underrepresented by the makeup of a store's staff That’s why it is important for a store to not only reflect its immediate community but also the larger community. In this session, HR leaders will share with attendees:
- The importance of hiring a diverse staff
- The impact a diverse staff has within the store and on the greater community
- How to find great bookstore employee candidates outside your store’s community
