90 Moving Forward Together To sustain a diverse workforce and harness the power of our diversity, every Team Valero member must feel a deep sense of belonging to the team and each other. It is an imperative. Our inclusive culture supports a sense of belonging and builds more dynamic teams. Education & Networking We create opportunities to learn about our differences to foster a deeper sense of belonging. Diversity Forums Team events, many in support of cultural and community events, help build understanding within our workforce. Our 2021 MLK Speech & Diversity Forum was held live and recorded for all Valero sites to listen and learn from their peers. Diversity Ambassadors Valero’s Diversity Ambassadors serve as advocates for Diversity Equity & Inclusion (DEI) principles in the workplace and in the communities where we work and live. Ambassadors seek opportunities to build awareness of DEI and promote inclusivity in the workplace and engagement in our community. “As a Diversity Ambassador, I help cultivate and ensure an environment of inclusion and belonging. Whether that’s welcoming new employees or connecting people to events/ organizations at work or in the community, the Diversity Ambassadors help build a stronger, more inclusive workforce here at Valero.” - Mark Williams , Sr. Manager Wholesale Marketing.
