Founder’s Welcome

Dear Members and Future Members,

Welcome to the Industry DEIB Consortium. I am honored to have you join us in our mission to create a more diverse, equitable, inclusive, and belonging-focused industry. This consortium was founded on the belief that real change is only possible when we come together as a community, sharing our knowledge, experiences, and best practices. By fostering collaboration among industry leaders, professionals, and organizations, we aim to set a new standard for DEIB excellence.

Our work is rooted in the understanding that diversity and inclusion are not just goals to strive for but essential components of a thriving industry. Through our programs, certifications, and events, we are committed to equipping you with the tools and strategies needed to drive meaningful DEIB initiatives within your own organizations. Whether you are just beginning your journey or are looking to deepen your impact, you will find valuable resources and a supportive network here to guide you every step of the way.

I encourage you to fully engage with all that the Industry DEIB Consortium has to offer. Your active participation is vital to our collective success. Together, we can create an industry where everyone feels valued, heard, and empowered to contribute. Thank you for being part of this important movement. I look forward to the positive change we will achieve together.
