Best Buy Chairman and CEO Hubert Joly on Tuesday signed the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion™ pledge. It’s the largest CEO-driven business commitment to advance diversity and inclusion within the workplace.
Best Buy recognizes that diversity within an organization spurs greater innovation, revenue growth and strategic-critical thinking.
“Best Buy strives to unleash the power of our people and utilize their unique talents, experiences, beliefs and backgrounds to create an engaging work environment best suited to fulfill our mission of helping our customers pursue their passions and enrich their lives with the help of technology,” Hubert said.
Today Best Buy released its fiscal year 2017 Corporate Responsibility & Sustainability Report. What’s the big news? We set out to reduce our carbon emissions 45 percent by 2020 (over a 2009 baseline) and, at the end of 2016, we reached nearly 47 percent.
We are committed to addressing climate change. But that’s not all.
At Best Buy, we are focusing our efforts to positively impact the world in three areas: our communities, our environment and our people. It’s the work we call Best Buy for Good.
