With any new initiative there are always those who are willing to step up to the plate and make the effort a success. Such is the case with our Charter Members who are listed below. They are dedicated to reaching out and being a part of a diverse community. Some members may already have internal initiatives in place; others may be just beginning to undertake new initiatives in striving to reflect the diversity of the community. In some cases, this may be the first step in understanding the importance of diversity in the workplace and implementing strategic processes to change and grow in this area. Whichever the case may be, the St. Louis Business Diversity Initiative is proud to call each a member, and together to bring this initiative to the forefront of their organization and our community.
