Meeting Notes for Managers, November 2023

    Below is a summary of university-wide news and workplace information for you to reinforce with your teams during staff meetings or via email updates:
     
    Explore Belonging at Yale resources
    Throughout 2023, students, faculty, staff, and alumni participated in monthly engagement opportunities and contributed to Yale’s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Continue exploring Belonging at Yale resources and be curious about how we’re progressing—together. 
     
    Encourage participation in Yale-United Way
    Now through December, promote the United in Purpose campaign. Encourage participation through donations, volunteering, and fundraising events.
     
    Don’t forget Child Care Subsidy reimbursement
    December 8 is the 2023 submission deadline for Child Care Subsidy reimbursements. This is the final reminder for you and your team. The University is committed to providing support, resources, and benefits for working parents. The annual Child Care Subsidy Program for benefit-eligible faculty, managerial and professional staff, and postdoctoral associates and fellows is for infants to five-year-olds. Register for upcoming information sessions.

    DEI and Belonging Toolkit now available in Manager Toolkit
    The  Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) Toolkit  is now accessible on Yale’s Manager Toolkit webpage. Developed by the Recruiting Strategic Initiative (RSI) team, the DEI and Belonging Toolkit educates and enables hiring managers to support the university’s Belonging goals, and establishes a foundation for more inclusive and equitable recruitment processes. Its release builds on other hiring manager resources, including an Interview Guide, an Interview Template, and a Candidate Evaluation Tool, which are located on the Manager Toolkit webpage. As you incorporate the DEI and Belonging Toolkit and previously released tools into your workflow, please partner with your Talent Acquisition Partner and share these resources with hiring stakeholders in your department to support the success of your next recruitment.
