OUR CEO’S OP-ED IN THE DENVER POST
Business leaders have a ‘defining role’ in battling systemic racism
“At IMA, our DEI mission is Diversity: Celebrate it. Embrace it. Let’s not let these just be words in Colorado and in our companies, but rather a way we live our lives.”
COMMITMENT.
LISTEN. LEARN. LEAD.
“IMA’s ongoing commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion is at the heart of our company. It is the right thing to do and it makes good business sense. Support of this work comes from the very top. At IMA, we are all encouraged to be upstanders, not bystanders. Our commitment is to listen, learn and lead. We take that commitment very seriously and are holding ourselves accountable.”
