As part of our mission, we engage with the problems afflicting our world—notably issues of discrimination, bias, and equity—and seek to build a community that achieves and celebrates diversity.
“We believe the most impactful leaders always weigh both sides of the ampersand in our mission—business and society.”
—Kerwin K. Charles
