The success of corporate supplier diversity programs is based on, and measured by, solid business drivers. However, the integration of CRE practices into corporate supplier diversity programs is still in its infancy.
Discover how CRE executives at Wachovia and The Coca-Cola Company are leading their organizations to accelerate the success of corporate supplier diversity goals - while they are improving their departments best practices while raising their departments' internal profiles. In addition, learn how organizations that certify minority and woman-owned companies - like WBENC - take the guesswork out of evaluating the credentials of diverse suppliers, provide access to certified vendors, and assist in educating the corporate community regarding the value of supplier diversity programs.
