DALLAS, July 7, 2022 – o9 Solutions, a leading enterprise AI software platform provider for transforming planning and decision-making, joins a growing coalition of businesses that have pledged to advance diversity and inclusion in the workplace. As one of more than 2,200 CEOs from leading organizations who are part of CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion™, o9’s Chakri Gottemukkala is committing himself and the company to take actions that support a more inclusive workplace for employees, communities and society at large.
By signing on to this commitment, o9 Solutions pledges to cultivate a workplace where diverse perspectives and experiences are welcomed and respected, and where employees feel encouraged to discuss diversity and inclusion. The CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion™ collective has already shared more than 1,400 best-practice actions, exchanged tangible learning opportunities and created collaborative conversations through the initiative’s unified hub, CEOAction.com.
Fostering a more diverse and inclusive workplace environment is a key aspect of o9’s culture, which encourages employees to be a force for positive change. To support its goal of increasing the representation of women within the technology and supply chain industries, o9 hosted a virtual panel in 2021 with Girls, Inc., an organization dedicated to equipping young women with the skills to navigate economic, gender and social barriers. o9 also sponsored Girls, Inc.’s 2022 Power to the Girl Conference in Dallas. In addition, o9 recently launched two internal networks: Women in Technology and Rainbo9, both of which are focused on increasing employee engagement and fulfilling the company’s promise to create a truly inclusive workplace. Diversity, Equality & Inclusion education is provided through o9’s internal Learning and Development team, which regularly welcomes external speakers who hail from a variety of backgrounds to share their perspectives on diversity and inclusion with employees.
