Recently DiversityBusiness.com held its 11th Annual National Multicultural Business Conference at the Gaylord National outside of Washington, DC.  Their conference proclamation was “American business has arrived at the next step in its evolution – the era of global diversity.”

Diversity has included the following: 1] businesses owned by people of color; 2] by women; and 3] by the disabled.  But, in 2011 this organization wants you to know that it includes innovative ideas, varied products, greater quality, greater efficiency, and lower costs.  Additionally, it includes a multicultural platform in markets, products, services, and experience.

State and Federal Communications, Inc. and Elizabeth Z. Bartz, President and CEO has been chosen to receive a DiversityBusiness.com award for its success in business in Ohio.

The conference host presenting the awards was Joan Lunden.  Her keynote speech titled “10 ways to Reinvent Yourself” is featured in our May 2011 Compliance Now newsletter.
