Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser has sat down with Brazillian newspaper Folha de S.Paulo to talk about a range of topics and one thing which came up is the all-important topic of diversity in the workplace. Mr. Bowser said that they will continue to hire the best talent and that its DEI initiative will continue to be in place for the foreseeable future.
“We always want to attract the best talent we can and retain that talent. We also believe it’s important for that talent to be diverse in terms of their backgrounds, their experiences, and their understandings because our players are diverse. So we strive to have diversity that reflects our players in our organization. This is something that’s been in place for years, before people really started using the acronym DEI [diversity, equity, and inclusion]. And that will continue to be in place. It’s important to us.”
