Aspire is Slalom's community of Asian, South Asian, Asian American, and Pacific Islander employees, leaders, and allies.
Coming together to attain new heights
Aspire brings together the diverse experiences, perspectives, and cultures of our Asian, South Asian, Asian American, and Pacific Islander employees to attain new heights.
We are committed to raising awareness about cultural heritage, furthering career development and representation, driving local and global business, providing networking and mentorship opportunities, and creating a sense of belonging. We believe that our diverse perspectives, experiences, and cultures are the cornerstones for how we think, approach problems, and celebrate our people.
One of my core values from my heritage is karma, the principle that your actions now determine what happens to you in the future. I try to lead with empathy and let karma guide my decisions."
We still have a lot of work to do, but we are fortunate that Slalom is ahead of the curve in inclusion and diversity."
Mukesh Kumar General Manager, Seattle
