“DEI requires dedicated resources over a long period of time.”
Simon Lusty Chief Marketing Officer, Aquent
A recent Boston Globe article explored how the Supreme Court's decision to end race-based affirmative action in higher education is impacting workplace diversity. The ruling doesn't apply to employers, and while some companies have reportedly scaled back their diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts, a significant number are doubling down on DEI. The article calls out Aquent as a company with a longstanding commitment to DEI. Its Chief Marketing Officer, Simon Lusty, is quoted as saying how an ongoing commitment to diversity, even during these turbulent times, is one of the keys to keeping employees.
