项目摘要

Numerous studies have demonstrated that a diverse talent pool increases productivity, competitiveness, and creativity. However, this diversity is often untapped among the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) professions, including the minerals, metals and materials community. To address this concern, The Minerals, Metals and Materials Society (TMS) will hold the Second TMS Summit on Diversity in the Minerals, Metals, and Materials Professions (DMMM2) in Evanston, Illinois, July 25-26, 2016. DMMM2 is part of a recurring summit series and will have a culminating emphasis on the development and implementation of skills and toolsets. Topics including communication and negotiation techniques to mentoring and support networks will be part of the event to help empower participants with skills they can use and share upon returning to their respective workplaces or classrooms to facilitate a more diverse workplace and community.The Second TMS Summit on Diversity in the Minerals, Metals & Materials Professions will primarily focus on three overarching topic areas to continue the themes initially raised during the first summit: (1) strategies for increasing under-represented minority engagement in STEM professions, (2) best practices for building a welcoming and inclusive workplace culture, and (3) addressing factors behind the self-induced glass ceiling in order to support new pathways to career fulfillment. This summit is intended to provide the tools and development of personnel skills to increase diversity in the minerals, metals and materials community. The audience will consist of at least 100 attendees who will hear from more than 40 invited speakers drawn from government, academia, and industry. This summit will be held over two days to include interactive panel discussions, lectures by key leaders in the field of diversity, and skill-building sessions intended to catalyze further tangible actions that actively address diversity and inclusion.

大量研究表明，多样化的人才库可以提高生产率、竞争力和创造力。然而，这种多样性在科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)专业中往往是未被利用的，包括矿物、金属和材料社区。为了解决这一问题，矿物、金属和材料协会(TMS)将于2016年7月25-26日在伊利诺伊州埃文斯顿举行第二届矿物、金属和材料行业多样性峰会(DMMM2)。DMMM2是反复举行的首脑会议系列活动的一部分，将把重点放在技能和工具包的开发和实施上。包括指导和支持网络的沟通和谈判技巧在内的主题将是活动的一部分，以帮助参与者掌握返回各自工作场所或教室后可以使用和分享的技能，以促进更多样化的工作场所和社区。第二届TMS矿物、金属和AMP；材料专业将主要集中在三个主要主题领域，以继续第一次峰会期间最初提出的主题：(1)增加STEM专业中代表不足的少数群体参与的战略，(2)建立欢迎和包容的工作场所文化的最佳做法，以及(3)解决自我诱导的玻璃天花板背后的因素，以支持职业实现的新途径。这次峰会的目的是提供工具和人员技能的发展，以增加矿物、金属和材料社区的多样性。听众将由至少100名与会者组成，他们将听取来自政府、学术界和工业界的40多位特邀演讲者的演讲。本次首脑会议将举行为期两天的会议，包括互动式小组讨论、多样性领域主要领导人的讲座，以及旨在推动进一步采取切实行动积极应对多样性和包容性的技能建设会议。
