NEW YORK, Oct. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Omnicom Group
(NYSE: OMC) today announced that Tiffany R.
Warren, SVP & Chief Diversity Officer, will be leaving
the company at the end of October to take up a leadership position
at Sony Music Group. A search for a new Chief Diversity Officer is
currently being conducted.
"Over a decade ago, Tiffany joined Omnicom in a newly
established role that was one of the first in our industry, and
since that time, she has demonstrated an unwavering passion
and dedication to diversity, equity and inclusion that has
underpinned our own core values," said John
Wren, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Omnicom Group.
"Under Tiffany's leadership, we've made notable gains in
recruiting, retaining and developing a diverse workforce across the
group and have accelerated our momentum in doing more to advance
systemic equity. We thank Tiffany for her many contributions across
Omnicom, especially the establishment of the OPEN Leadership Team,
and we wish her well in her new role at Sony."
"Goodbyes are hard when you love what you are leaving, but it is
time," said Tiffany R. Warren.
"Through the innovative work of the remarkable members of the OPEN
Leadership Team, Omnicom is strongly positioned to continue leading
and innovating in the areas of diversity, equity and inclusion. I
am confident of the progress that will be made throughout Omnicom's
networks as OPEN 2.0 continues to guide its DE&I work,
including new internal initiatives, client best practices, industry
collaboration and work with social justice organizations."
Tiffany R. Warren joined Omnicom
Group in January of 2009. During her time as Chief Diversity
Officer, Warren enhanced Omnicom's vision to be a world class,
benchmark company for sustainable diversity, equity and inclusion.
As the head of the OPEN Leadership Team, she grew the group to
include 25 Diversity Champions across Omnicom's agencies and
networks and has assisted with Omnicom-wide change efforts to
advance and retain diverse talent. OPEN 2.0, which was recently
created under Warren's leadership, will continue to be implemented
throughout Omnicom following her departure.
