2015 Best Practices & DiversityFIRST™ Awards Luncheon Series
The Texas Diversity Council proudly announces the Annual Best Practices & DiversityFIRST™ Awards Luncheon Series. This year’s theme is, “Promoting Excellence through Diversity & Inclusion.”
“The DiversityFIRST™ Luncheons are organized to educate individuals on diversity and inclusion best practices, while also honoring those individuals and organizations who have championed these principles in the workplace and community,” said Dennis Kennedy, CEO and Founder of the Texas Diversity Council.
In the past, the awards luncheons have also brought an elite group of keynote speakers such as Donna Brazile, CNN Commentator and Political Strategist; Debbie Denmon, Director of Communications for the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office, and Nina Vaca, Chairman and CEO of Pinnacle Technical Resources, Inc.
