We successfully launched our supplier diversity program, after working with Rhodes and his team. Our program met two core goals we had going into the project: 1) grow more wealth in our community, and 2) increase the quality of our vendor pool. Rhodes delivered these results and then some!

Rhodes and his team know how to easily engage with leaders from many different backgrounds. They have the rare ability to reach across the aisle, engage in respectful dialogue, and collaborate with executive leadership teams with diverging opinions to advance their DEI commitments.
