At Verizon, we have implemented several affinity groups to support our diverse workforce. What are your feelings on the effectiveness of affinity groups within the workplace?

"From what I've researched about affinity groups, I believe they are a valuable tool to help attract, retain and develop underrepresented groups within the workplace. Affinity groups can provide employee mentorship opportunities, suggestions to improve company culture, and increased employee morale through their implementation - and even the fact that a company like Verizon commits to nurturing affinity groups can be an attractive quality for employees of all types."
