Tony Byers: Diversity, equity, inclusion can lead seafood industry to greater success

March 11, 2021 — Businesses are seeing less turnover, growth in market share, and more robust earnings through the implementation of diversity and inclusion (D&I), according to Tony Byers, who has spent more than two decades immersed in the field, which he believes to be “the business imperative of our time.”

Author of the book “The Multiplier Effect of Inclusion: How Diversity and Inclusion Advances Innovation and Drives Growth,” and former director of global diversity and inclusion for Starbucks, Byers has extensive firsthand knowledge of D&I’s significant impact on the business world over the past 20-plus years. Byers said he intends to share many of his insights with the seafood industry during his Seafood Expo North America Reconnect keynote address on Wednesday, 17 March, from 10 to 11 a.m. EDT.
