A Word from Christena
In August 2020, Christena was appointed dentsu's first Chief Equity Officer. There is no question that she joined at a critical time for the company, the industry at large, and at a time of tremendous unrest and uncertainty. She reflects on her journey in this letter.

Champions for meaningful progress
We are seeing slight increases in the diversity of our hiring throughout 2020 and into 2021, vs. 2019, with women accounting for 60% of Americas hires and multicultural representing 33% of US hires. Our ambition is to have a more diverse candidate pool from all underrepresented backgrounds, inclusive of LGBTQIA+, differing ability levels, military and Veterans.
2020 Data Highlights
We continue to see strong overall representation of women at 58% of our Americas region, up +4% from our summer 2020 snapshot.
U.S. Multicultural representation (Black, Indigenous, Latinx and Hispanic, Two or More Races, and other) is 27% of our identified workforce data.
Women represent 60.5% of our Professionals
ranks (entry-level through early Director levels)
and remain above 50% at our Management
Levels (Director through VP/SVP).
