“I am grateful to work in a company where employees are actively building an environment where we can bring our best selves to work to do our best work. In the process, we are also doing our part, as global citizens, to create a better world,” said Ralph de Chabert, Brown-Forman, Chief Diversity, Inclusion, and Global Community Relations Officer. "The CEI standards keep us focused on the most meaningful ways to support an inclusive workplace so that LGBTQ people will continue to choose to build their careers here.”
