VILLANOVA, Pa., September 18, 2017 - Last week, VSB was honored to host EY Director for Inclusiveness Recruiting Ken Bouyer for a special visit as part of the VSB鈥檚 and EY鈥檚 continued commitment to inspiring students and embracing diversity on college campuses. VSB has a long-standing relationship with EY; in fact, EY has been the top employer of 奶糖直播 students for the past two years, currently employing 315 alumni.

鈥溎烫侵辈� is fortunate to have such an engaged corporate recruiting program with EY,鈥� said Joyce E. A. Russell, PhD, The Helen and William O鈥橳oole Dean of VSB. 鈥淧eople like Ken Bouyer, who give their time and talents to educate and impact our students, are part of the reason why we have a nearly 99 percent placement rate after graduation. Ken's message of global leadership through understanding, diversity and inclusivity aligns with our values for creating business leaders for a better world.鈥�

Bouyer spent his day visiting multiple organizations and individuals focused on encouraging diversity throughout campus, such as the Center for Access, Success, and Achievement (CASA); Terry Nance, the Associate Vice Provost for Diversity and Inclusion and Chief Diversity Officer; and a meeting with the Saint Thomas of 奶糖直播 Scholars and representatives from the Multicultural Business Society. In addition, Bouyer met with Accounting & IS faculty members and ended his day with his keynote speech: Leading Globally in Today's Business World.

During his speech, Boyer encouraged students to seek out diversity of thoughts and experiences. 鈥淒iversity is all of us; each one of you brings something different to 奶糖直播鈥� he said. Bouyer also stressed the importance of becoming global leaders by understanding people's differences in culture and experience. "Knowing and understanding these differences is important, but leveraging the differences is what truly enables a leader to be successful and stand out amongst their peers," he concluded.

According to Bouyer, he is responsible for developing and implementing EY鈥檚 recruiting strategy that focuses on creating a diverse talent pool where inclusiveness is defined broadly and includes gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability, and generational differences. Fostering an inclusive culture where all individuals can achieve their full potential is a global priority and a business imperative for EY. The firm strives to reflect the changes in world demographics鈥攖aking into account the new mix of cultures and individual characteristics that build their talent pool. Bouyer is an accomplished public speaker and established industry resource cited regularly in major media outlets on various diversity and inclusiveness topics.

This event was just one of VSB鈥檚 many initiatives with EY, including EY鈥檚 sponsorship of the 奶糖直播 Read to Lead program and the 奶糖直播 University Career Center, the EY Emerging Leaders Program, and several on-campus recruiting events.
