A Manager's Perspective on Diversity and Pay Equity: A Case Study From the Front Lines at Tesla

General Session

Achieving diverse teams and an equitable pay structure is a daunting task. It requires the mutual cooperation of diversity leaders, human resources and finance managers to achieve gender pay balance. This session spotlights specific tactical actions leaders across multiple departments can immediately take to set the tone for diverse and equitable teams.

After facing these challenges during his time at Tesla, Parag Vaish shares the techniques and data management strategies he used to create a system that ensured diversity, inclusion and equitable pay thrived within his team (and show you how you can do the same thing). Mr. Vaish implemented a methodology which ensured that all future candidates would be compensated based on a formula rather than there having to be judgement involved.

What you will learn:

- Grass root strategies that empower managers on a daily basis to create change in the organization rather than waiting for a company wide mandate

- How to initiate organizational change in gender pay scales

- To create inclusive and balanced teams without having to make trade-offs
