Introducing the GEN IMPACT Awards: A New Standard in Employee Engagement
The Global ERG Network (GEN) is elevating recognition in the realm of diversity and inclusion with the launch of the GEN IMPACT Awards. This initiative marks a significant transition from the Diversity Impact Awards™, reflecting a wider mission to acknowledge the contributions of Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) and their integral role in shaping inclusive workplaces.
EMBRACING A BROADER VISION
The GEN IMPACT Awards aim to spotlight not just the initiatives of ERGs, but their measurable impacts on both workplaces and the wider community. As Monica Brunache, Executive Officer at Tapestry Partner Solutions, notes, the focus is to highlight groups that enhance employment opportunities, remove barriers to access, and promote economic empowerment. This broadened perspective aims to inspire a culture of collaboration and innovation, encouraging ERGs to showcase their success in driving diversity and inclusion metrics at all organizational levels.
WHY PARTICIPATE?
Applying for the GEN IMPACT Awards offers tremendous benefits. Winners will receive recognition across the industry, access to invaluable best practices from leading ERG executives, and a complimentary ticket to the 2025 Global ERG Network Conference. Plus, application submission is free and open to all, regardless of GEN membership. This opportunity represents not only a chance to gain visibility but also to connect with a vast community dedicated to workplace excellence.
