STEP 11: LEVERAGE RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER
INTERNAL RESOURCE GROUPS
ERGs are internal networks that represent a community of team members who
share a common interest relating to such characteristics as ethnicity, gender,
nationality, culture, disability, or sexual orientation. These groups may form
relationships with one another in order to gain additional visibility and increase
impact.
Ways to leverage relationships with other internal resource groups may
include:
Maintaining an ongoing partnership with the leadership of other groups
Keeping open communication with members from these groups
Exchanging or sharing information and resources
Collaborating on community and professional events and activities
Disseminating ERG announcements of news and upcoming events
Sharing financial resources
Reporting progress
Sharing best practices
Establishing partnerships with other business leaders that have a vested
business interest in the group
