Stryker-Munley Group has launched a new Diversity, Equity and Inclusion practice.

Mae Escobar, president of SMG San Antonio, has been appointed national director of the new practice. In her new position, Escobar will oversee the development and implementation of programs and services that promote diversity within SMG’s national organization and in the representation of the company’s portfolio of clients. She will continue in her current role as president of SMG San Antonio.

SMG’s focus on building DEI involves two steps. First, using best practices to bring in more diverse SMG partners and associates and promote DEI within each regional office. The second step is making concentrated outreach to the business community at large to share our findings, research and communications expertise.

Escobar will be working with a diverse team made up of representatives from our national offices.
