GBC’s Purpose
The Global Black Community (GBC) is committed to creating an environment where all colleagues can reach their full potential, celebrate—and be celebrated —for their contributions to Pfizer, while being their best and most authentic selves. GBC does this, in part, by delivering best-in-class, diverse programs to enrich and develop our colleagues, retain the brightest and best talent, and positively impact at-risk and underserved communities.
GBC’s Executive sponsor is Doug Lankler.
In Our Own Words
Our colleague resource groups create an open, encouraging environment where everyone can be their authentic selves and everyone has a forum to use their voice. We asked members of the Global Black Community (GBC) Colleague Resource Group “What is one word that you affiliate with the Global Black Community CRG and your community?” Here’s what they told us.
