How a Bloomberg reporter covers diversity and management

Jordyn Holman

Jordyn Holman, Bloomberg News reporter on the diversity & management beat in the New York office, talks about how she covers issues on her beat.

Holman writes, “This beat looks at the intersection of race, class and gender in the workplace – one that has become increasingly relevant in our political and social climate.

“In this role, I’ve been given a platform to discuss issues on power dynamics and how it affects business performance. We break stories, write long-form magazine articles and appear on televisions throughout the nation to talk about diversity stories that apply to every industry.

“Working at Bloomberg has given me the opportunity to follow my passion of writing and talking about underrepresented groups of people.  Whether it’s on the Bloomberg Terminal, website or TV, I get to bring these stories to our consumers to raise visibility, foster conversations, and influence individuals and corporations to take action in advancing equality and inclusion.”
