I am honored to have the opportunity to serve our community as the ADAPT BRG Chair. I continue to gain a better appreciation for the challenges of the disability community that have shaped my understanding of my own disability, and in a leadership role, have the opportunity to influence the development of a more inclusive environment for everyone at MassMutual.

I’m a member of the ADAPT community because I believe so much in what we stand for- creating a forum for discussion around disability issues, driving toward inclusivity for people with disabilities and serving our community. My favorite part is managing MassMutual’s relationship with Hole in the Wall Gang Camp – their inclusive values align so closely with ours.

I was immediately drawn to the ADAPT BRG because our family was formed through adoption and I am a Mom to three beautiful and very special children. Each was adopted through medical needs programs and we are always in search of resources and networking opportunities for our family. My ADAPT experience has far exceeded my initial networking and education objectives, as our family has been able to take part in events that promote disability inclusion, allyship and community involvement. We’ve grown through these experiences which may not have otherwise been available to us. I am very thankful to be a member for the ADAPT BRG community.

AFVF gives us a vehicle to continue our service at MassMutual. Through the BRG, we recognize the value of those that have served, give back in the veteran community and build comradery among our members.

The Comradery & Support from my brothers & sisters, along with the charitable good the BRG supports.

I love sharing what I know and what I have learned through my experiences. Being a part of the BRG allows me to continue to share and help other individuals.

Being part of the ALMMA BRG has allowed me to interact with people who have shared experiences. It’s given me a sense of belonging and allowed me to expand and strengthen my workplace network. Been able to participate in the different events and sub-committees has helped me further my career development and improve on my competencies.

ALMMA is the best way to give back to individuals that are facing or will face challenges similar to those I faced when I was initiating my career in the US. I want to share what I learnt from great mentors, successes and, equally important, from failures.

Connection is an important part of feeling like one belongs. When I started at MassMutual, I joined ALMMA to start building connections. It was so important in helping me learn more about the great work happening at my new workplace and in getting to know the cool people making that work happen. Now, I continue to be involved so that I can help others with building their connection.

It is a privilege to be a part of the BRG Community, where one gets a chance to make connections across the enterprise based upon common background, interests, or simply the desire to make a positive impact in our current environment. I have learned so much from the events that I have attended, have helped organize, and I really appreciate this community.

BRG for me is just another way to give back to the community, if I can help others learn from my experiences and pave way to provide opportunities that weren’t given to me in early days of my career, that will be the biggest value for me.

I joined Passages BRG because I was looking for a community of individuals that I could connect with who had a shared experience of what it is like to be Black in a financial services company. What I didn’t expect to find was a family – composed of those who look like me and those who don’t – who shared my passion for advancing the issues that are important to the Black community both inside and outside of MassMutual.

For me, Passages provides centered space for MassMutual African American and Black employees as well as room for Allies to support our community. Through the inclusion that Passages affords, we make our collective corporate experience richer for all as we continue on our journey of diversity, equity and inclusion. As a founding member, I am encouraged by the impact that Passages continues to have on the greater MassMutual community and the value add provided to the business.

Passages gave me an opportunity to hone my leadership skills, find mentorship as a Black individual in a corporate environment, network across the enterprise and collaborate with others in the diversity, equity and inclusion space. Additionally, we work together to be a positive influence in the Black community through our grants, sponsorships and volunteerism. I love being a part of that. This BRG has helped me both personally and professionally.

I am a part of the PRIDE BRG because I see an incredible opportunity to build powerful bonds with other BRGs. Celebrating all that we are as an LGBTQ community and also being a POC makes me feel incredible strength, which I hope to use to further my intersectional causes.

I am part of the Pride BRG because there is a lot of work to do. I feel like I belong and I want to make others feel like they belong too.

I am a member of the Pride BRG to volunteer with organizations that address the specific needs of LGBTQ members in our local community. Our BRG serves as a space where LGBTQ employees and allies can support each other and advance the work that is being done outside of MassMutual.

BRGs are critical to our cultural evolution by creating a greater sense of community, learning and inviting diversity of perspectives both in and outside of the workplace. Our BRG community efforts create great opportunities for dialogue, courageous conversations, understanding and acceptance. BRGs also provide business leaders visibility into the organization’s talent pool, furthering our pursuit of building diverse teams to drive better business results.

BRGs provide significant opportunity to build your network and develop critical leadership skillsets. I find BRG membership instrumental, as I have been able to give and receive education, encouragement and partnership in my professional development and in response to social events.

I joined the Women’s Leadership BRG because I believed in their mission and also how they are committed to leadership development. The Women’s Leadership BRG brings an overabundant amount of opportunity to meet endless amounts of wonderful people within MassMutual. These opportunities have allowed me to make new friends and partner with intelligent and strong women. I truly value these interactions because they have broadened my mind and strengthened my career goals.

If you are going to do something do it well. Simple words to live by given by my mother growing up. As I’ve progressed in my career, I’ve also learned the tremendous importance of helping others advance their professions. I joined the Young Professionals BRG to ensure my colleagues and I can benefit from my mother’s wisdom in developing their professional work goals and journey towards a great future with Mass Mutual.

When I started in the BRG it was very much about community for me, in that I was looking for a place to belong away from my desk. As my community grew, it quickly became a foundation of my professional network. I then took advantage of the formal programs hosted by the BRG for young professionals and enhanced my skillsets, which was instrumental for the success I have had in my career path. But it does not stop there, as now I am able to take those experiences and meet with new members to hopefully set them on a course to finding their own path.

When I started my career at MassMutual, I knew I wanted to find a place to connect with other people early in their career. I found it with the Young Professionals. The BRG has given me resources to focus on development, improve my communication skills, and step into leadership opportunities. Most importantly, I’ve developed my personal network and formed friendships that go beyond the workplace!
