AUSTIN, Texas, June 30, 2021 - Leaders of diversity, equity, and inclusion at 33 major companies have come together to launch the DEI Board. The mission of the group is to help members engage in confidential, leader-level discussions with a trusted network of their peers.
The group is managed by Board.org, a membership organization where senior-level leaders at large organizations collaborate in private, peer-to-peer discussions. Membership is exclusively for the people leading the programs, without the influence of vendors or interest groups in the room.
Board.org was acquired by FiscalNote earlier this month.
The DEI Board supports and connects the leaders of DEI at large companies so they can better create diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplaces and advance belonging within their industries. The unprecedented resources and attention being applied to DEI initiatives is resulting in leaders needing a safe space to collaborate on critical topics and action plans with a trusted group of peers.
DEI Board members include AmerisourceBergen, Applied Materials, Brown-Forman, Chick-fil-A, Cigna, Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Edgewell, Fidelity Investments, Finning International Inc., General Electric, IGT, Lam Research, LCBO, LexisNexis, Mars, Medline Industries, Moody's, Motorola Solutions, Nutrien, ON Semiconductor, Panera Bread, Pernod Ricard, Ralph Lauren, Reckitt, TransUnion, Travelers, WESCO, and XPO Logistics.
