Nominations are now being accepted for SIA’s 2024 Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) Influencers US and Canada list.

This is the fourth year for the DE&I Influencers list, which recognizes professionals who are leading the charge to create opportunities for the historically excluded communities in the workforce solutions ecosystem.

The list is not a ranking and will be based on the nominations. The list seeks to highlight people  who have made a demonstrable influence in creating opportunities for historically excluded and underserved communities in the workforce solutions ecosystem. The DE&I influencer is one who is having tough conversations about race, gender and equality and challenging others to think differently and developing initiatives to drive change.

The list is open to individuals across the workforce solutions ecosystem, including staffing firms, buyers of staffing services, VMS/MSP/RPO providers, talent platform firms and vendors.

Those making nominations should be prepared to include examples of where their nominees are speaking out and working on DE&I and how those conversations and initiatives are changing attitudes or have effected change. Please focus on results from the past 12 months.

Nominations are accepted through March 1. The list will be published in the May/June 2024 issue of Staffing Industry Review magazine, and profiles will be available online.
