Our annual North America DEI Alumni Award recognizes alumni who are leading the way on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in their organizations and communities.
Since launching this award in 2021, we've been able to recognize 12 individuals in our North American alumni community who have proven their ability to make a measurable impact, exert influence, and promote innovation in DEI. Each award comes with a $10,000 prize that BCG donates to a DEI-related organization of the winner’s choice.
BCG knows the importance of DEI. That’s why we founded the North America Center for Inclusion and Equity. Over five years, we are investing $1 million to support organizations in North America that are advancing racial equity.
Betsy Mallow and Jes Wolfe are working hard to create change and advance equity for all. Learn more below about these incredible BCG alums, their work, and the organizations to which they’ll be donating their prizes.
