Amend (Don’t End) DEI: What SHRM’s BEAM Framework Means for Law Firms

Elizabeth Catterall Ogilvie joins Jennifer Simpson Carr to unpack SHRM’s newly introduced BEAM Framework—Belonging Enhanced by Access through Merit—and what it means for law firms navigating today’s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) landscape.

They discuss the five BEAM questions, explore how merit-based inclusion can strengthen talent strategies, and share how law firms can evolve their DEI programs in light of recent executive orders and court decisions.
