Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Change starts with a growth mindset.
Our Approach
Learn, Unlearn and Relearn
We learn every day from the day we are born. As kids, much of what we learn is belief—what we think is true. As adults, we naturally get trapped in these beliefs such that it's difficult to see another perspective. As corporate citizens, our collective potential suffers.
The goal of our DEI program is to help us systematically challenge what we think we know. It fosters a mindset of curiosity and growth by highlighting unconscious bias, exposing different views and encouraging courageous conversations.
Learn
more about ourselves and each other
Unlearn
beliefs and bias holding us back
Relearn
the behaviors and actions most likely to move our business forward
Our Focus
Reinforcing Change
DEI is an ongoing journey. And there is much to do to nurture a healthy, high-performing culture. To continue this critical work, our corporate focus centers on—employee engagement, talent development and community partnerships.
Employee Engagement
Fostering a culture that encourages every employee to bring their authentic self to work
Talent Development
Expanding recruiting practices and commitments; retaining and developing top, diverse talent
Community Partnerships
Purposefully developing corporate partnerships; actively engaging in our communities, with an increased focus on Social Justice reform
The more we challenge ourselves to continually reexamine our own perceptions and behaviors, the stronger we will be.
Our Business Resource Groups
Diverse Perspectives
From training to company-wide discussions, social responsibility has risen to the top. That includes employee-led business resource groups—comprised of individuals who share common characteristics or experiences, along with their allies. These nurture an inclusive workplace through open dialogue and facilitating learnings for everyone.
