Presenting workplace fairness to boards as a business imperative was one of the key takeaways from a fireside chat between Luke Visconti, founder and Chairman of Fair360, and Chris Nassetta, President and CEO of Hilton (a Fair360, formerly DiversityInc Hall of Fame company), at the 2023 Top 50 event in New York City on May 2.
The pair discussed the importance of workplace fairness in business, with Nassetta speaking about how he has been explaining to shareholders the need for it. He also shared the progress that Hilton has made in diversifying its board of directors to send a message throughout the organization that fairness is a priority.
Nassetta also acknowledged the challenges of promoting fairness within the hospitality industry, particularly at the highest levels, and how Hilton has been working to develop a systematic approach to doing just that.
