The Champions of Diversity Awards Breakfast salutes companies that understand the need for diversity in the job market. They embrace diversity to its fullest potential and truly understand to succeed in today’s competitive market; diversity must be reflected in every aspect of the workplace. Corporate leadership, employment policy, supplier relations and corporate giving are held as a fundamental tenet of the organization’s philosophy. We hope by paying tribute to the accomplishments of our annual honorees we can raise the diversity bar not only in the for profit sector but not-for-profit organizations as well.
