JoAnn Means, Senior Diversity Talent Sourcer, TD Bank, knows how DEI recruitment efforts can pay off for all TD stakeholders — colleagues, customers, shareholders, and local communities. "Companies should prioritize a diverse workforce because diversity drives innovation and creativity by bringing together different perspectives and experiences," she said. "It’s also the right thing to do and helps us better serve our diverse customer base."

DEI and philanthropy are close to the heart for Ellen Glaessner, Executive Vice President, U.S. Head, Sustainability and Corporate Citizenship, Senior Advisor to the CEO, General Counsel, and Executive Sponsor of LGBTQ2+, TD Bank. "Community engagement is important for TD Bank because banks do better when our communities do better," she said. "As part of our local communities, we want to see meaningful and lasting improvement.
