Examples

Below are some examples of work that other ERGs have done.

African American Working Network at Allstate

Allstate utilizes the 4C's model. Each ERG reports annually on their activities and metrics tracked against the 4C's

SEGA Pride at SEGA

Read this interview on gaymingmag.com with one of the leaders of SEGA's LGBTQ+ ERG, "SEGA Pride".

When asked about virtual engagement, Jasmine said, "We set up an intranet page on our internal communications system, where we have now about 15 articles written in the last year. These are original articles, so all written by staff, about different topics that people find important, like raising awareness or talking about specific days such as National Coming Out Day, or Lesbian Visibility Week, or Trans Awareness Month.

We organized webinars with different parties, to raise awareness, and we had good attendance. For each of these activities, we invited our studios as well. So, we sent out an email to our partners at Creative Assembly, Sports Interactive, and all the other studios to say SEGA LGBTQ+ Network, as we used to be called, is hosting a webinar next week, we would love for everyone to join us. We also recorded them so staff could watch them in their own time.

We’ve also done some quizzes and it’s been really, really nice to have people from the different studios on that as well.

One of the longer-term goals we set is that we would really like to work together more with the studios on different initiatives and we want to work together more closely with SEGA America too."

BLK at HOKA

For Black History Month in 2022, members of BLK at HOKA held company-wide education sessions on the history of Jim Crow Laws, the history of the Black Panthers, and shared the story of the Tulsa Massacre. From the presentation on the Tulsa Massacre, ERG Leader, Nick Hall, closed with this - "The past informs our future, helping us to better understand how we are fighting against systemic racism and concerted efforts to disenfranchise Black Americans through legislation such as voter suppression laws happening in states across the U.S. This is also where WE together, have the power to create change. How will you educate, empower, and enact?"
