Profile: Diversity Leadership Alliance

Diversity Leadership Alliance is a non-profit organization whose membership represents the diverse businesses in the Valley, with the purpose of providing education and consulting opportunities to organizations and individuals who are interested in “Building an Inclusive Community.”
 
As our world becomes more fluid, with rapid changes in demographic, an inclusive community will help us effectively collaborate with each other by utilizing our strengths to benefit our businesses and community.
 
Started in 2002 with a diversity leadership roundtable in Phoenix, bringing leaders from various organizations and businesses together to discuss the challenges and potential solutions for business success.  The Diversity Leadership Alliance (DLA) was formed in 2003 with the collaboration of several major companies in Arizona.
 
Our mission is to provide a forum for diversity/inclusion dialogue, as well as providing learning opportunities to enhance professional development, understanding, promotion and management of diversity as an essential part of business success. Our primary focus is to create a learning community in the business world to address diversity and its benefits.
