At GBH, what matters to you is what matters to us. That’s why we take the time to listen and make informed decisions that champion our employees, our work, our partners, and our audiences.
GBH Employee Participation Model
Led by our employees and supported by GBH leaders, GBH’s Employee Participation Model provides a network to exchange ideas and support the professional development and inclusion efforts of our colleagues.
As staff bring more of themselves to their jobs, their engagement soars, enhancing their work. At Prism, our mission is to create a safe, empowering space for our LGBTQ+ staff and allies, encouraging them to share their full, authentic selves in the office. We hear from members how Prism has made them feel recognized and valued and has transformed their professional and personal lives.BRUCE KOHL, MASTERPIECE DIRECTOR DIGITAL CONTENT AND PRISM MEMBER
Employee Resource Groups

GBH Councils and Committees
GBH’s All Access advances inclusion and equity for disabled GBH staff and their allies, and supports family members of those with disabilities. At GBH, we’re dedicated to empowering employees with disabilities to be fully included, supported, and equal members of the GBH community by removing ableist structural, technological, and attitudinal barriers and stigma at GBH and beyond.
The IDEA Council is comprised individuals in a range of jobs, roles and tenures, operating in different functions across the Foundation. This group works with the Office of Inclusion & Equity to provide insight and counsel on critical initiatives and structural changes within GBH.
Our Inclusion Ambassadors encourage participation in Employee Resource Groups and other activities that advance inclusion and equity at GBH.
These committees focus on employee engagement and workplace culture within individual departments or areas of focus to create a deeper sense of belonging among employees.
Formed in April 2022, GBH’s Land Acknowledgement Committee developed our first official Land Acknowledgment statement for the organization and a Commitment to Actions that pledges to strengthen GBH's relationship with Indigenous people and find ways to honor them and tell their stories.
Comprised of functional leaders from each GBH business unit, SISC incorporates and operationalizes the work of the Office of Inclusion & Equity so that structural changes can be made within and throughout GBH’s departments. SISC leverages data-driven insights to incorporate changes to various policies, practices and procedures that lead to a more accessible, equitable and inclusive organization.
