“Wendy’s experience, successful track record and infectious passion will be invaluable to Unisys as we accelerate our progress along our DEI journey,” said Ebrahimi, who co-chairs Unisys’ Inclusion and Diversity Council. “Through her efforts, we will be able to listen more closely to the diverse perspectives of people both inside and outside of our company, and create new opportunities for equity and inclusion in our workplace as a result.”
“DEI is about more than just diversifying the gender and ethnicity makeup of our teams. It is also about accounting for different experiences and inviting disparate perspectives from teams, countries and regions outside of our own,” Reynolds-Dobbs said. “Doing so fuels new ways of accomplishing goals, and is increasingly critical to a company’s success. I look forward to expanding on the strong DEI foundation that Unisys has built.”
