Diversity in the Media and Innovation-Focused Industries
A diverse workforce has been proven to add value and accelerate innovation within a company.
Latinos and members of other underserved communities are often overlooked in the media and innovation-focused industries. Members of underserved communities continue to be underrepresented not just in boardrooms and other positions of power, but in the overall workforce. ALLvanza knows there are qualified, talented applicants of all ages from underserved communities who are motivated, ready and willing to take these positions. They just need the opportunity.
We, at ALLvanza, know diversity does not just benefit the individuals allowed to build productive careers in the media and innovation-focused industries. A diverse workforce has been proven to add value and accelerate innovation within a company. Building an inclusive team, at every level, is not just the right thing to do—it is a big benefit for the bottom line.
ALLvanza advocates for a more diverse workforce through:
Preparation: We provide mentorship and education to Latinos and members of underserved communities, encouraging them to pursue successful careers in media and innovation-driven sectors. Our goal is to ensure that Latinos and members of underserved communities receive the necessary guidance and support through mentorship, education, advocacy and culturally relevant workshops.
Ongoing Collaboration: ALLvanza works directly with its corporate partners and advocates to ensure companies develop responsible processes to hire qualified candidates from the Latino and underserved communities. ALLvanza advocates for open and transparent hiring practices for corporations and organizations of all types. Achieving a diverse workforce requires a level playing field where all applicants compete fairly.
