"I’m so glad to partner with ERG Leadership Alliance. They have provided the missing link that bridges the passion ERG leaders bring with the preparation needed for the actual work. ELA’s thoughtfulness and plethora of valuable resources is impressive and much needed. They also have their finger on the pulse of what’s happening with a large variety of ERGs across the world which brings great benchmarking insights which individual ERGs or organizations would be hard pressed to duplicate."
