In August of 2006, Ted Childs retired from IBM after a 39 year career, the last 15 as the executive responsible for the company’s Global Workforce Diversity Programs. In the July 2000 FastCompany Magazine, Keith Hammonds wrote that “Ted Childs is perhaps the most effective diversity executive on the planet.” While that was one reporter’s opinion, Ted’s goal has been to be the Workforce Diversity thought leader, strategist, catalyst for change, and key executive partner of this generation.

The role of Ted Childs™ LLC is to serve as a “Global Strategic Advisor” to Senior Management and a company’s Workforce Diversity team. We will lead them in the examination of their culture and building a business case and the associated strategy development and execution plan. The goal is to move a company from “spinning your wheels, politically correct behavior” to execution that reflects performance and leadership.
