Lisa, Regional Director, Venues Encore Belief

My faith is a huge part of my life. I have experienced plenty of instances where I would hesitate in conversations or gestures because I was uncertain that my Christian faith would be accepted. The Belief BRG not only welcomes my faith, but I can support other team members in feeling confident about practicing their faith, openly and unashamed. I have discovered so much about myself, and I feel so wonderful knowing that I can be my authentic self and not suppress what I am passionate about. This makes working for Encore so much better.

Matt, Sr. Director of Event Technology Encore WellBeing

I am so encouraged by Encore’s commitment to building an inclusive workplace and increasing visibility, representation, and community through its Business Resource Groups. The hospitality industry is as diverse as it gets and being able to show how that is reflected in our organization and how we will continue to work on honoring the communities and cultures that are represented by our unbelievably talented folks is essential in our mission to connect, inspire, value people, and do the right thing. As a member of the WellBeing BRG, I am excited to be a part of making sure our team’s mental health is a part of the conversation in how to ensure we value our people.
