I just wanted to let you know how much I get out of these CADIA Connects sessions. I'm getting some things out of (my company's efforts) but what I get from your sessions is much greater and very much appreciated. I just wanted to let you know!! Thank you so much for all that you are doing!

VP Corporate Communications

I met with Cheryl from CADIA today. It's a fantastic organization, with a really refreshing and pragmatic approach to diversity and inclusion. Cheryl invited me, and I accepted, to join their CEO Coalition that meets monthly on practical ideas in this space. I also agreed we would become corporate members...
