D&I SERIES - Liz Pike, President of Green Rhino Recruitment | Episode 48

11/19/20 • 38 min

This is episode 48 of the Leaders in Payment podcast and this is also our third episode in our special series focused on Diversity and Inclusion.
In this series I will be talking with leaders in the payments industry (and maybe some experts from outside of the industry) about diversity and inclusion. It has been proven that a diverse workforce and diverse management team leads to increased creativity, better decision making, reduced employee turnover and increased profit – as well as many other benefits that we will be talking about.

This special series is brought to you by the Wnet and Paysafe.
