In 2021, as companies across the globe ramped up spending on diversity and inclusion programs, MMG Earth was asked to submit a proposal to help a European tech firm develop strategies for greater workplace equity.
Founded a decade ago by CEO McKensie Mack, MMG Earth centers the “principles of racial justice and social justice” as it reimagines management for employers ranging in size from 20 to 6,000 team members. But when Mack submitted their proposal, they sensed some resistance. Mack was later told a different vendor was selected because “leadership raised a lot of concerns about working with a nonbinary person.”
