Convergint seeks to attract, retain, and develop the best talent available. In so doing, Convergint chooses to create and sustain a workplace environment where all colleagues are fully engaged and can contribute to their full potential. Affinity groups support this effort by encouraging professional development opportunities, enhancing leadership skills, fostering innovation and creativity, and promoting cultural understanding.

SP&T News recently featured Convergint’s Indigenous Truth affinity group, whose purpose is to support an inclusive culture and increase the representation of indigenous peoples within Convergint, as well as expanding relationships with aboriginal suppliers. Indigenous Truth supports Convergint’s mission of becoming the most equitable and inclusive global service provider by leveraging diverse talent and creating a culture where all colleagues can achieve their maximum potential.

Grant Lagimodiere, Convergint Indigenous Truth Chair, said that future plans for Indigenous Truth may include an orange shirt campaign for the National Day of Truth and Reconciliation in September, increasing Convergint’s number of Aboriginal suppliers, and promoting career opportunities for Indigenous communities at Convergint and more broadly across the security industry.

“Each group is moving the needle on development opportunities, enhancing leadership skills, attracting and retaining talent, and creating cultural understanding throughout Convergint.”
