Introducing Denise Malloy, New Chief Belonging Officer

We’re excited to welcome Denise Malloy as our first-ever Chief Belonging Officer, which is an evolution of the Chief Diversity Officer position.
We remain as committed as ever to diversity, equity and inclusion progress, and Denise will be an invaluable partner and counselor to the business as we continue our journey to ensure associates feel accepted and valued for their unique identities and skills. Denise will also work closely with our Associate Resource Groups, Officer Caucus leadership teams, President’s Inclusion Council and many others across the organization to accelerate our focus of belonging across Walmart.
Our four guiding principles shape our approach to improving the company’s CDEI health and set the foundation for sustainable change across the enterprise:
- Accountability—Promote action through ownership and acceptance of responsibility for inclusive behaviors
- Data-driven decisions—Collect and analyze data, and generate verifiable insights to make better decisions
- Objectivity— Minimize subjectivity to reduce the risk of bias in talent processes
- Transparency— Increase access to information through communication and collaboration
