The Profiles in Diversity
Journal International Innovation in Diversity Awards honor corporations,
organizations and institutions around the world that have developed
innovative solutions that offer measurable outcomes in the area
of workforce diversity and inclusion. Our objective is to encourage
and increase the number of businesses and institutions implementing
innovative programs, projects or practices that will help to
improve workforce diversity/inclusion excellence.
Ten organizations will be selected as honorees. In defining
innovation, we use Webster’s dictionary definition as
“effecting a change in the established order; the creating
of something new.” Innovations can be in the form of new
ideas, methods, services, or processes that improve the quality
of life or enhance productivity within an organization.
 Diversity is defined as differences among people with respect
to age, class, ethnicity, gender, physical and mentally ability,
race, sexual orientation, spiritual practice, and any other
human difference.
These awards recognize innovations within the organization that
have been launched within the past TWO years, and have had an
influence and delivered a positive outcome on diversity management,
staff recruitment, and/or toward inclusiveness and improved
equity in the workplace.
