Our Mission

Diversity Councils at Simon & Schuster

The focus of the Diversity Councils is to foster a positive and inclusive work environment. It is our goal that Simon & Schuster becomes an employer of choice, so that both prospective employees and authors of varied backgrounds will be attracted to Simon & Schuster and view the company as a superior publisher of quality books.

 

The Councils are comprised of employees from all divisions and levels of the organization, and supports the efforts of the company to develop an inclusive, respectful, and effective cross-cultural workplace. Council members each serve on a core committee and meet regularly to focus on the following initiatives:

• Staffing, Retention and Career Development
• Community Involvement
• Diversity Events
• Workplace Diversity Awareness
