#SOTI Key Takeaway! Our latest findings are crystal clear; while the U.S. population continues to diversify, the marketing and advertising industry has stagnated. 📈 Representation in our field falls significantly short - 8%-10% lower than the general population. In the Twin Cities, just 11.9% of marketing professionals are BIPOC, with even lower numbers in Kansas City (10.2%) and Milwaukee (10.5%). The time for transformative action is now. Join us in the quest for change by participating in our State of the Industry debrief sessions, where you can engage with our CEO, Kelli Williams, and Program Director, Michaela Clubb, in open discussions about the report's findings. Your input matters; join us in the journey towards a more equitable industry. Dive into the full report and RSVP for the debrief sessions at the link in our bio. #DEIB #DiversityMatters #TBLSOTI
