Diversity

Did you know:
  • The GDP of the North American Women is greater than that of California...thus the North American women are the 6th largest economy in the world
  • Organizations with an active diversity program liberate that buying power
  • Diversity programs back success...4 out of 5 women owned business start ups succeed vs a national average of 1 in 5
  • Women owned businesses excel in team leadership
  • Women owned businesses are usually started by women in their 40s...they are seasoned and confident
The issues organizations face not only include what they have to gain... but also... what they have to lose by not participating.

Message from Leslie
"Here at The Personnel Department we not only talk about diversity, we live it. We are proud of our non-profit involvement with Galt Foundation (which specializes in placing work ready people with disabilities in competitive work situations) and our international linkage with Rakia Galt. We are also part of the largest employment network in Canada, Jobs In Canada (www.jobsincanada.ca). Through our work, our organization has won numerous awards as top employer from: Queen's University, BC Business Magazine, Best in Oregon, Canadian Business Magazine, and Consumer's Choice. These are just some of the ways we're making an impact."
