Protiviti takes pride in acknowledging the rich diversity and remarkable accomplishments of our team members. Black Heritage Month offers an occasion for introspection, learning, and recognition of the profound contributions made by Black individuals across history.
This month, under the theme ‘Building Legacies: Honoring Innovation & Contributions’, our Black Employee Inclusion Network Group (BEING) is orchestrating a series of experiences and events for our employees aimed at fostering a culture of inclusion and a sense of belonging, see highlights below.
Breaking Barriers and Building Bridges Conversation
We’re hosting a trailblazing tech innovator and advocate for workplace equity who will share her perspectives and experiences on navigating the digital frontier in an era of perpetual change.
Building a Deep-Rooted Legacy with Guest Speaker Kim Dickerson
The BEING Mentorship Pillar is dedicated to inspiring growth and development within BEING. This leadership series will feature leaders across various solutions to provide mentorship in a collaborative format. Our objective is to plant seeds of empowerment for participants to grow and prosper in their professional or personal journey!
Beyond the Headlines: Honoring Black Changemakers
An inspiring virtual event presented by BEING Men, celebrating the lesser-known contributions of Black Americans who have made a lasting societal impact.
Demystifying Innovation Using Design Thinking Concepts
An interactive workshop hosted by the BEING Education Pillar, which strives to upskill members. This training will highlight how to incorporate innovation into our client work in an approachable and digestible way.
Local BEING Chapter Events
BEING has ignited a call to action, encouraging local office BEING chapters to embrace the power of in-person events to observe Black Heritage Month. This initiative offers BEING members a chance to forge connections, fostering a sense of community and celebration tailored to their unique geographical culture. This initiative will create meaningful moments that resonate with the spirit of unity and shared identity within the BEING community.
Leadership Spotlight
These activities would not be possible without our outstanding leaders. We’re honored to spotlight Josh Cloud who will moderate our Breaking Barriers and Building Bridges Conversation and Champaine Powell who leads our Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) recruiting efforts.
Ongoing Support for Inclusion Initiatives
At Protiviti, we believe our inclusion initiatives are fundamental to driving innovation and success. This includes recruiting efforts at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and our strategic partnerships, including CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion, NABA Inc., and the National Urban League.
Black Heritage Month invites us to embrace learning, promote personal and professional growth, and rejoice in the mosaic of experiences that fortify our organization. We urge every member of our team, as well as the wider community, to cultivate an environment of empathy, respect, and esteem for the rich tapestry of diversity. United, we shall inspire and uplift one another.
