WASHINGTON, Jan. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Management Leadership for Tomorrow (MLT), a leading national nonprofit dedicated to building diverse leaders and equitable workspaces, announced a new, public-facing campaign focused on advancing Black equity in the workplace. The 'All In' campaign provides a platform for industry-leading employers to share their commitment to a rigorous approach to Black equity in their respective workplaces while encouraging others to sign on to the MLT Black Equity at Work Certification. The dozens of MLT Black Equity at Work committed employers have recognized that by implementing the rigor that the Certification demands, they can make substantive progress on issues of racial equity, both within their workplaces and their communities.
The 'All In' campaign is a year-long effort to bring to light what the journey to Black equity in the workplace looks like.
