Its mission is to drive change by celebrating the diverse human experience, implementing a culture of empathy and championing social responsibility.
The Council is made up of three groups:
- Steering Committee – drives ED&I initiatives and proposes internal and external policies or actions for LAN
- Champions – serve as local liaisons between the Steering Committee and office staff; solicits ideas and concerns about ED&I and communicates all office feedback to the Steering Committee
