Employers oftentimes want a workforce that reflects the communities they serve, and in the world of human resources that can mean forming partnerships with like-minded organizations. In this week’s “Running your business day to day” segment, Eskenazi Health representatives share more about their summer internship partnership with Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
