The Human Experience in Business Committee
Championing the Human Experience in Business in A/E/C
The SMPS Human Experience in Business Committee suggests initiatives and strategic objectives to the board of directors and staff to increase awareness of and support the experience for our membership, the marketing profession, and our members’ firms.
Mission
SMPS recognizes, respects, and values the dignity of all people. We are united in our stance against all forms of injustice and inequity.
Vision
SMPS commits to actively champion diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within our organization, the firms we represent, the communities we serve, and the architecture/engineering/construction (A/E/C) industries.
Winning aspiration
We are intentionally working to increase participation in our organization and the A/E/C industries by underrepresented groups; advocate for recruitment and retention of professionals of all backgrounds by creating inclusive and welcoming environments; and promote equality and opportunities for advancement in the Society and industry overall. Together, we can transform our businesses, enhance membership experiences, and influence change in our communities.
