8 Act local
Support programs and initiatives in your
community that serve underprivileged popula-
tions, in order to build awareness of what design
is, and show that it's a viable career path. Become
involved in public school STEM/STEAM initiatives
through volunteer opportunities, or as a mentor
or visiting critic.
9 Share the best practices and successes
with colleagues
Gabrielle Bullock from Perkins+Will reported
on what P+W did:
"After my appointment as Director of Global
Diversity, I took a deep dive into the firm, visiting
each office and having honest-and at times
uncomfortable-discussions. I asked the staff
what they thought about diversity and inclusion,
and got unique perspectives. In some offices [the
consensus] was race, in some it was gender, and
in some it was generational. The yearlong process
gave me an idea of the challenges and how to
address them uniquely. It was clear that we needed
training. So I engaged a trainer to deliver a half-
day workshop to the leadership in each office.
Through that process the offices decided what their
specific challenges were and created their own
strategic plan.
"We made this an accountable program and assess
progress according to our stated goals. The initia-
tive is part of our culture and part of our evaluation
process: We measure each office for social responsi-
bility, sustainability, and design quality. We try
to look at everything through a diversity lens.
The board and the CEO get a progress report every
year, and so does each office leader. It's up to each
office to communicate [the results] to the staff.
Responsibility has to trickle down-I don't want
to be the voice.
"I've been on a number of diversity task forces and
committees in my 27 years, and until now it went
nowhere. You need focus, a leader, funding, and a
feeling of: If we don't do this, something is wrong."
DO CK
Work your way.
