McDonald’s does diversity right

Published Updated 3 Min Read

Patricia Sowell Harris is very into McDonald’s. Understandably so. She started as a “fry girl” but moved on after two weeks to administrative assistant.

That was in 1976. Today, she is global chief diversity and inclusion officer and is responsible for the diversity programming that affects 1.8 million employees across 117 countries.
