ODEO Associate Administrator Steve Shih Discusses Diversity and Inclusion as Mission Critical

ODEO is proud to announce the highlighting of our own AA Steve Shih in STEM Workforce Diversity magazine, in its spring 2018 edition: http://cdn.coverstand.com/28522/500205/5fbca5f8faf6203f6846f313c0de09b21f4ee725.1.pdf. Steve’s comments are on pages 17-18, “Diversity is Mission Critical for NASA’s Innovation.”

Steve discusses the criticality of diversity to NASA’s mission success and capacity for innovation. He attributes much of NASA’s effective embrace of diversity and inclusion to the commitment of NASA leadership, by their emphasis on D&I as an Agency value as well as a strategic priority.

By focusing on organizational goals, effective execution, and performance evaluation, Steve maintains, organizations can demonstrate a return on investment, thereby reinforcing the value proposition of D&I as a mission-enabler.

  1. Great article! . . . the ability to demonstrate NASA’s D&I return on investment reinforces its value proposition as a mission enabler. NASA IS a mission-focused agency and I know from experience that we would not be the number one agency in government without active engagement and innovations from our diverse team and all it represents.
