At Crestwood, we realized we needed to find a way to engage our employees in the journey of becoming a more diverse and inclusive organization and allow employees to have open conversations. We wanted a platform to provide resources to help increase people's comfort with starting and participating in meaningful discussions related to diversity and inclusion.
In Q4 2020, Crestwood launched a series of fireside chats in which D&I experts facilitate meaningful dialogue with our employees on various diversity topics and issues.
The fireside chat is promoted to all Crestwood employees and the transcripts are made available as a supplement to diversity training. Employees have responded positively to these trainings and understand the need for diversity of thought to spur innovation and collaboration.
