Chris Holman welcomes Angela Thompkins, Vice President, and Chief Diversity Officer, at Consumers Energy, Jackson, MI.
Watch Angela and Chris discuss her role at Consumers Energy and their support for small business and the upcoming Michigan Celebrates Small Business Gala in this YouTube video shared below:
Their topic of discussion for this interview is the Michigan Celebrate Small Business Gala.
Angela, tell us how and why Consumers Energy is committed to DEI?
because it’s better for our customers, our communities, and our state. It’s our job to continue powering homes and businesses with safe, reliable, affordable, and increasingly clean energy – and much, much more. We are committed to DEI in every aspect of our business because we want to reflect the communities we serve.
We’re connecting with you today as we approach Michigan Celebrates Small Business’ Gala Celebration on May 2nd, can you speak to Consumers Energy’s commitment to small business?
We are committed to small businesses. We are working to transform the way we serve Michigan’s small and medium businesses to help them succeed. Small and medium business owners and their staffs are experts in running their businesses, but even the smartest, most seasoned business owner can’t do it all – and wouldn’t want to. We can be experts they know and trust to make things easier for them – and to help make them successful.
Speaking of Michigan Celebrates Small Business, Consumers Energy is a Gold Sponsor, let’s talk about that…
The Michigan Celebrates Small Business gala means more than giving out awards to small businesses. It’s coming together as a state to celebrate what success looks like through leadership, perseverance, and community. We’re excited to celebrate those employers who put Michigan to work, who reflect our state’s values, and who will help power our economy for the next generation.
