The objective was two-fold: First to take a hard look in the mirror to identify ways for us to improve our own organization. And second, to serve as a signal fire to the community &#8211; inviting a broader conversation around values and accountability, exploring how we might collectively lift up and transform our industry toward higher standards and a brighter future. We\u2019ve committed to publishing this report annually, with this 2021 report (published in 2022) serving as our second edition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s no secret the industries and workplaces we intersect with and work within have been unfairly leveraged and controlled by homogenous insiders and gatekeepers for far too long. Finally, the tide is turning. Transparency is the most powerful tool we have to help level the playing field.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the time you finish reading our new 2021 report you will know what we believe in, what we\u2019re willing to fight for, and how our values take tangible shape in the work we do and in the community we serve. You\u2019ll also see our shortcomings and areas needing the most work. It\u2019s all there, warts and all. And I welcome any questions, criticisms, conversations or ideas you may have to offer. You can reach me at rw@marmosetmusic.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most importantly, please amplify the power of transparency in your own workplace, industry and community. Let this signal fire spark conversations and connection around shared values and ideas of how we might lift up our workplaces, industries and communities toward a better and brighter future.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With gratitude,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\"
