It was my honor to develop, lead and operationalize OpenText’s first Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging global strategy, department and initiatives. In my time as Director of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, I worked with the CEO and senior leadership to create a strategy and a global governance and volunteer structure. I then implemented multiple initiatives within this structure and strategy including starting 10 Employee networks, 11 volunteer teams, a mentoring program, multiple trainings and quarterly global events. I advised and trained senior leadership teams to champion DEIB throughout the culture of the company and in all practices: business, partnerships, policies, communications and processes. I was thrilled that over 11,000 employees participated in the DEIB initiatives that I started and the inclusion scores increased 19% in less than 2 years.
