Spotlight on You

Christine Racine, director of human resource operations at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, accepted recognition from the MA State House of Representatives for her company’s award as one of the “Best Places to Work for Disability Inclusion” by the Disability Equality Index. Joining her were local recipients of the award from: EY, Fidelity, MassMutual, PwC, Raytheon, State Street, TD Bank, and Tufts Health Plan. 

Nicola Dixon, executive director of the General Mills Foundation, penned a piece for the World Food Program USAto commemorate World Food Day. “The scope and scale of the world’s food imbalance and its consequences on people and the planet require bold and broad action,” says Dixon. “No single stakeholder group nor sector can do it alone. Each of us has a role to play. And together, we can make meaningful impact.”

Tristen Summers, a director at PwC, wrote an article on LinkedIn on National Coming Out Day about his positive experiences of acceptance at his company. “I never had a doubt that is how my PwC colleagues would respond. Because for eight years I watched the firm live out its message of inclusion across all forms of diversity—both at the leadership level and in the culture on the ground,” he said. “I think that the more human we are, the easier it will be for people to come out at work. The benefits of being out at work, to both employees and employers, are something we should all want for our teams and our companies.”
