HARTSVILLE, S.C. (News release) -- Sonoco joins a growing coalition pledging to advance diversity and inclusion in the workplace. One of more than 550 CEOs who have come together for CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion™, Sonoco President and CEO Rob Tiede signed the pledge that Sonoco will work to advance diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
By signing the commitment, Sonoco is pledging to help cultivate a workplace where diverse perspectives and experiences are welcomed and respected and employees feel encouraged to discuss diversity and inclusion. The collective of more than 550 signatories has already shared more than 500 actions, exchanging tangible learning opportunities and creating collaborative conversations via the initiative's unified hub, CEOAction.com.
"It's about focusing on generosity, not gender; results, not race; collaboration, not creed; openness, not orientation; and empathy, not exclusion," said Tiede. "It's about creating equal opportunities for everyone to achieve their goals and realize their calling."
