Report on Diversity and Inclusion from 2018
In today's world, we are presented with a significant choice: to allow voices and experiences of exclusion to widen the divide, or to stand strong and amplify messages of inclusivity. This choice is not merely a suggestion, but a necessity, especially in the current context.
StockX, the global technology platform for buying and selling sneakers, streetwear, and collectibles, has taken a firm stance on this issue. Damien Hooper-Campbell, the company's first Chief Impact Officer, has been tasked with establishing and leading the overall strategy for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), environmental stewardship, and community engagement at StockX.
In a recent report, StockX has highlighted their imperfections, learnings, and ambitions in the area of D&I. The report provides an overview of how the company implements DEI in its operations, offering examples of their ongoing efforts.
Hooper-Campbell encourages everyone, regardless of their role or experience, to keep pushing in the pursuit of a more inclusive environment. He references historical trailblazers in D&I who persevered despite facing challenges, and encourages current workers to continue their journey.
The company acknowledges that DEI work can be both rewarding and emotionally taxing, as well as fruitful and frustrating. However, they emphasize that it is undeniably key to their ability to thrive as a purpose-driven technology company.
StockX believes that everyone, regardless of qualifications, has a role to play in DEI work. They encourage self-care while working on these initiatives, recognizing the importance of maintaining personal well-being in the face of the challenges that come with such work.
The choice to promote inclusivity is framed as a choice to stand against division. It involves amplifying messages, actions, and the spirit of love that are inclusive. The company's D&I work is ongoing and requires continued effort and persistence from all involved.
In conclusion, StockX is setting a strong example for other companies by taking a proactive approach to DEI. By acknowledging their imperfections and committing to continuous improvement, they are demonstrating that the choice to stand strong and promote inclusivity is not only possible, but essential in today's world.
