Yesterday, I had the pleasure of leading the 5th Mountain Plains MSDC corporate roundtable session on 'Connecting with the Community: Supply Chain Diversity'. Corporate leaders shared essential best and next practices for navigating the evolving landscape of supplier diversity. It is critical for organizations to stay connected in the community.

This year, Authentico has launched a tool with 2 national organizations. The only way to see the whole diversity and inclusion (D&I) picture is by gathering the full gamut of diversity and inclusion metrics. But most D&I assessments only give you part of the picture. Our partner tool is the only validated D&I assessment survey that enables you to measure both individuals and the entire organization. Whether you work in HR or as a D&I professional, diversity in the workplace is an important issue to address. Managing diversity and inclusion should always begin by gathering the full array of diversity and inclusion metrics. Deliver more impactful D&I strategies and effective solutions by starting with an assessment survey tool. Contact Dr. Andrea Hendricks at Authentico for more information. weareauthentico.com #diversitymatters
