SUPPLY CHAIN D & I
we provide access to STEM education , earn-as-you-learn career experience , and earning an Associate ’ s degree at no cost – these are programmes happening right now that create a pathway for hiring into IBM . “ The America of tomorrow will look fundamentally different from today . The economic viability of our world will depend on the choices businesses make about whether all people are able to meaningfully contribute to and participate fully in our economy . Without oversimplifying a very complex transformation of corporate America , leaders should embrace the opportunity that comes from putting racial equity at the centre of business innovation and growth by doubling down on HBCU pathways for ‘ new collar skills ’ in STEM and supply chain .”

“ IT CAN BE CHALLENGING TO KNOW JUST HOW MUCH – OR HOW LITTLE – DIVERSITY EXISTS WITHIN A PRIVATE COMPANY ”
