Founder’s Welcome
The landscape of our industry is rapidly evolving, and the need for a collaborative effort to address DEIB has never been greater. By joining forces, we can create a more inclusive environment where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
This consortium is not just about checking a box. It’s about building a stronger, more innovative industry that reflects the rich diversity of the world around us. When we leverage the talents and perspectives of all individuals, we unlock a wellspring of creativity and problem-solving power.
Here at the Industry DEIB Consortium, we will:
- Share best practices and resources: We’ll learn from each other’s successes and challenges, fostering a collaborative environment for knowledge exchange.
- Develop and implement effective DEIB strategies: We’ll work together to create actionable plans that drive meaningful change within our organizations.
- Advocate for industry-wide change: We’ll use our collective voice to promote DEIB initiatives and hold ourselves accountable for progress.
This is a journey, not a destination. It will require commitment, collaboration, and a willingness to learn and grow. But together, we can make a real difference.
I encourage you to actively participate in our consortium’s activities. Share your ideas, engage in discussions, and leverage the network of passionate individuals dedicated to building a more equitable and inclusive industry.
Thank you for joining us on this important mission.
Sincerely,
Dennis Kennedy
Founder & Chairman
Industry DEIB Consortium
