Culture of inclusion

This is a great time to be at Avnet and more importantly to be a part of our exciting transformation. The opportunity to create a new company and transform the way the world experiences technological innovation is extraordinary. To achieve our purpose of guiding today’s ideas into tomorrow’s technology, however, we must unleash the full potential of each of our employees.

With a workforce 15,000 strong, we rely on employees bringing both their passion and individual diversity of thought, experience, perspectives, and ideas to work. Our ability to appreciate, value, and leverage these talents to gain richer solutions is key in achieving our goals and mission. When we celebrate each other for who we are and the value each of us adds, our business results are stronger and engagement levels are higher.

“Avnet understands that when employees feel supported and included in the workplace, they bring their best selves to the job and are able to make better contributions to the business. From a definition standpoint, diversity is the ‘what’, inclusion is the ‘how’ and equity is about fairness. Yes, we want a workplace with people from all backgrounds and walks of life, but even more importantly, we aspire to be an organization where everyone feels seen, has equal access to resources and opportunities, knows that their inputs are heard and contributions are truly valued.”
