• Resumen

  • To aid in this initiative, IMA's Diversity Thought Leadership Pipeline Committee was established to create a community within IMA's membership around diversity and inclusion topics, assist in identifying ways to strengthen volunteer engagement among underrepresented groups, and develop resources to increase the cultural competency of association professionals and staff In this foundational year, the Committee looked at internal processes, including the nominations process, membership recruitment and retention, and identification of factors to consider when developing new products and services. Moving forward, the D&I Committee's goals and initiatives are to: * Publish a Diversity column in Strategic Finance on a quarterly basis. * Establish relationships with students from colleges and universities that have diverse student populations to strengthen volunteer participation among underrepresented groups utilizing the Leadership Experience Program and the Campus Influencers Program and at schools being considered for new student chapters. * Review best practices of other organizations regarding diversity and inclusion. * Build strategic partnerships with accounting and finance organizations with an ethnic focus.
