National Convention of Faith-Oriented ERGs

     The Religious Freedom & Business Foundation (RFBF) and Busch School host 1st national convention on "why faith-oriented Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are the next diversity necessity"

     RFBF and the Tim and Steph Busch School of Business at the Catholic University of America (CUA) will host the first-ever national convention of faith-oriented Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) on February 13-14, 2020, in Washington, DC. This multi-day event will bring together ERG leaders from across corporate America to share their experiences, best practices and perspectives on the future of this accelerating trend toward faith-based ERGs at some of America's biggest and most recognizable companies.

Indeed, Corporate America is at a tipping point regarding religion in the workplace. This amazing movement is accelerating within corporations, but it is entirely off the radar of the national media. Companies are sponsoring and promoting faith-oriented ERGs. Some, like Texas Instruments, have been operating these groups for over 20 years. In others, like Salesforce and America's largest employer, Walmart, they are only now taking off. Faith-oriented ERGs include interfaith groups, such as “Faithforce” at Salesforce, and faith-specific groups like the Christian, Muslim and Jewish groups at Texas Instruments. The mission of these groups, as part of the larger Diversity & Inclusion movement, is simply to support the missions of their respective companies by helping their members bring their whole selves to work.
