Creating a work force that reflects the face of American classrooms takes more than good intentions.  It takes commitment, resources and resolve.  Learn the steps, pitfalls and rewards that are part of a corporate commitment to ensuring that the voices of all cultures are present in its publications. McGraw-Hill, winner of AEP’s first Talent Development Innovator Award, creates future leaders through an extensive recruitment, training and retention program that includes: A college internship program that identifies and supports high-level candidates through mentorship and individualized goal-setting; A leadership foundation for first-time and middle managers that provides a platform for success at each step in the employees’ careers; Targeted professional development created to help employees at all levels meet rising challenges; and a program for actively recruiting diverse talent through key partners such as Central State University.
