Listen "Ep. 18 - Facebook's Jason Trimiew on How Facebook Is Re-Socializing Supplier Diversity"
Episode Synopsis
We have a love/hate relationship with American supplier diversity programs. They don't work for everyone. But what are they really designed to do? And for who? Must businesses go through a "diverse" door to earn big business? Why was it invented anyway? Do we need have supplier diversity programs anymore in the age of social networking? Who is WE anyway? Let's break down the premise that the only way a "diverse" supplier can do business with a powerful company like Facebook is by checking a box. Really? Jason Trimiew, Facebook, Inc.'s Head of Supplier Diversity, has a blunt and honest conversation with us about how he is guiding Facebook to make game changing moves on what a supplier diversity program is designed to accomplish and how his childhood informed his decision to dedicate his professional life to diversity and inclusion work.
