Rockwell Collins’ emergence as a diversity leader in the past five years was because of a focused, disciplined approach to creating an inclusive workplace. Kelly Ortberg, who took over as President in 2012 and CEO last July, has been a leader in the company for decades. He plans to build on the diversity success of his predecessor, Clay Jones, to use D&I to achieve his three business goals: global expansion, focus on core values and innovation.
Fair360, formerly DiversityInc Senior Vice President and Executive Editor Barbara Frankel interviewed Ortberg at corporate headquarters in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, this fall. A transcript of the interview is below the video.
