People: Belonging

We have committed to making the next ten years the best yet for Bacardi, and part of that journey includes creating a unified global community of people that really understand our consumers. To do that we need to build a company that mirrors the rich diversity of the communities and markets that we operate in. We know that globally reflective teams are good for business; they make innovation possible, outperform the competition and enable organizations like ours to be more impactful in the marketplace.

Creating an inclusive workplace is everyone’s job. That’s why Martin Voke, Vice President, Deputy General Counsel & Assistant Secretary for Bacardi North America, is raising awareness of women in leadership topics and has launched programs that engage male leaders in the diversity conversation. For his efforts, Martin was honored with a “Fostering Diversity and Inclusion Award” presented by Judicial Events, an organization that brings together leaders of the legal community. Martin received the award during the third annual CEO and General Counsel Gala held in Miami.
