enERGize Nominees (March 2024)

THANK YOU to our amazing March 2024 nominees.
 
We know that Employee Resource Groups and Employee Networks are the backbone of Diversity & Inclusion efforts at many organizations. But leading these (whether as a committee member, or HR / D&I lead) is often under-recognized. 
 
Each person below has been nominated to recognize their dedication, effort and impact with the ERGs they are involved with.
