Founder’s Welcome

In recent years the Digital sector has slowly began to change, as more and more companies are beginning to understand the value of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion within their field. DEI helps to recruit, and retain, and develop a competitive workforce in today’s global environment. It is imperative for companies to focus on initiatives that create innovative leaders and teams who are able to build strong connections within the marketplace and community.

Although this field isn’t particularly diverse, companies are waking up to the fact that talent comes in all shades and it is important that the digital industry has the tools, resources, and education to prepare its leaders to focus on taking on a multicultural workplace. There is a paradigm shift from a monolithic culture to one that is multicultural and inclusive. It is incumbent upon leaders to educate themselves as to why DEI is important, not just for business, but for individuals.

With that being said, I would like to welcome you to the Digital Diversity Council where we want to be the top promoter of DEI in the digital industry by assisting companies in creating real change and measurable progress with coaching, consulting, recruiting, and training. I strongly believe that it is essential for companies to be intentional, everyone should have the opportunity to reach their full potential in the workplace.

DEI is not something you fix, it’s a path. Let’s work together in creating viable initiatives that will lead to real change in the industry.

Cordially,

Dennis Kennedy
Founder
