For nearly 30 years, GE’s Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) have added value to our colleagues and businesses by helping to engage and develop the diverse talent needed to build a world that works. These are communities built on common backgrounds and experiences that welcome all employees to learn, connect, advocate, and foster a sense of belonging. Currently, GE Digital has three ERGs with plans to expand in 2021.
The AAF has a deep-rooted history and culture within GE as the oldest ERG. Born out of activism, the AAF was founded on the principle of community, attracting, promoting, and developing diverse talent in America and across GE’s global operations. As the group evolves from awareness and allyship to advocacy, they remain committed to driving transformative growth.
At GE Digital, the African Affinity Forum’s goal is to create a welcoming community and culture of belonging through sharing experiences and resources, hosting networking events and giving back to the communities in which we do business. By focusing on recruitment, retention and development, we can make GE Digital a place where current and future employees can grow.
The Hispanic Forum (HF) is committed to creating an inclusive environment where Hispanics can thrive and become a culture catalyst for GE and our communities through promoting Hispanic heritage, showcasing Hispanic talent and value, and enabling strong networks and alliances across ERGs.
HF draws upon the talents and passions of its members to explore and share Hispanic culture, elevating important conversations on social and economic issues, as well as community support.
The GE Digital Hispanic Forum provides a community and forum to enable our Hispanic employees with the training, tools and resources to grow within the organization, all while having fun.
