Mia Scharman is recognized as a Champion of Inclusivity for her commitment to creating meaningful cultural change within the workplace. At Avtech, she developed initiatives that foster a sense of acceptance and recognition, including a monthly Kudos Awards program spanning two divisions. This effort celebrates employees for their contributions and attitudes, encouraging a culture of gratitude that uplifts the entire organization. Scharman also designed work-shops focused on emotional intelligence, active listening and implicit bias, giving colleagues tools to cultivate empathy and deeper connection.
Her work reflects the category’s mission to drive measurable inclusion efforts that shape both culture and business impact. “Inclusion in the workplace looks like curiosity,” Scharman says. “When we begin with curiosity, we learn to view the world through a lens of compassion and continuous learning.”
