Gilbert’s story
How do Corteva’s efforts to advance inclusion, diversity and equity make you feel?
Corteva is listening. They’re allowing me to embrace who I am - you know, who I will become within the Corteva journey.
What has been the most fulfilling part of watching this journey take root and grow?
Culture of Belonging allows us to invite our team members to come in on the first day of the job and be who they are. Share their differences. Their knowledge with us. Their learnings, in terms of just not only jobs, but in terms of life, as a whole. When you think in terms of culture of belonging, think about that active embracing of our team members.
What one piece of advice would you give your partners and industry stakeholders, to make them begin their own ID&E journey?
Ensure that you’re listening and you’re learning from everyone, in order to achieve the ultimate success. And the ultimate success is to win the market.
What matters most to you about advancing ID&E in agriculture?
What matters the most to me is our relationships. When I think of our customers… our interactions with our teams… our conversations with our peers… it’s important that we leverage ID&E from the standpoint of who we are.
