Proactive communication
is critical
to increasing
transparency, and
we look forward
to providing this as
we move forward.
✔ Diversity and inclusion:
PES has
both a Diversity
& Inclusion Committee
as well as
a GB pos i t ion
named Member At Large Diversity
& Inclusion. Together, they work
to identify how we can increase
diversity, inclusion, equity, and
respect in all aspects of our Society.
We look forward to makA

to increase
transparency
but to do so in

future leaders
for the Society.
Sig nificant progress
has been made with
regard to diversity and
inclusion, and I am
proud to join a Society
that has made these
great advances. I think
we would all agree,
however, that this is an

the work and improvements that
will be made.

and interruptions, we have not
completed this task. Over the
last few months, we have reviewed
and secured a vendor to
conduct this work. We are re-engaging
volunteers to assist with
the process, and we have a goal
to launch a new website by the
end of 2022. This is a very large
task and it might cause some disruption,
but the long-term benefits
of improved communication,
branding and image, transparency,
accessibility, and more will
be more than worth it.
✔ Entering into the new normal:
Although we will, hopefully soon,
begin to progress more toward
increased in-person meetings,
we still have to continue to identify
how we can incorporate
