Fair360, formerly DiversityInc goes behind the scenes at EY Unplugged, the firm’s program aimed at the on boarding of ethnically diverse new hires.

When Ken Bouyer and Diana Solash started at EY in 1990 and 1994, respectively, there were no programs focused solely on diversity and inclusion. In particular, there were no initiatives to support the onboarding process of ethnically diverse groups. Fast-forward to December 2016 and Bouyer (Americas Director of Inclusiveness Recruiting) and Solash (Director, Global and Americas Diversity & Inclusiveness) are on stage kicking off EY Unplugged, a program designed to help ethnically diverse associates connect with peers and senior leader role models, mentors and potential sponsors in the first year with the organization.
