CLS Wrap Up and Moderator Summaries
summary
Sessions report concrete takeaways: formal and informal mentoring pairing accelerates new community leaders, volunteering small tasks grows skills, and many senior folks offer mentorship; remote work measurably expands inclusion (caregivers, people with disabilities, trans folks); track DEI with clear metrics not vanity counts; convert in‑person events to virtual by keep dates and incentivize live attendance; favor recognition over tchotchke swag, use submarine surprises as well as stated rewards, and watch for gaming of badge systems.
