United States Olympic Committee – Diversity and Inclusion Scorecard Program (2016)The USOC is shining the light on diversity in a public platform using a D&I Scorecard Program that is demonstrating full accountability to internal and external stakeholders.

It is embracing differences for optimal athletic performance and achieving better business results.http://www.diversityjournal.com/16620-u-s-olympic-committee- di-scorecard-program/
The Walt Disney Company – Heroes Work Here (2015)Disney's Heroes Work Here program not only helps find and hire highly qualified veterans, it also supports veterans and their families as they transition out of the military. Disney has hired more than 6,000 veterans since the initiative launched in 2012. The success of the program is being modelled in cities across the country who have hired over 10,000 more.http://www.diversityjournal.com/16117-the-walt-disney-company-heroes-work-here/
