Our CPO on diversity and inclusion
“As Chief People Officer, it's obvious that what makes me most proud of Avnet is our people. With so many different backgrounds, perspectives, and job functions it's no wonder we're a leading global technology company. In order to make Avnet as strong and versatile as it can be, we are committed to sharing values of diversity, equity and inclusion to achieve and sustain excellence in every aspect of our business. Our belief is that we can best promote excellence by attracting, developing and retaining a diverse group of employees and stakeholders by creating a climate of respect that is supportive of their success and providing opportunity and access to thrive. We also recognize that the responsibility for excellence, diversity and inclusion lies with all of us.”

“Avnet's RISE program is a great way to meet other women in the company and get to know each other on both a business and personal level. Networking with other women and gaining their perspectives about our business has enabled me to learn from their experiences.”Linda L.
