"I'm humbled to serve in this important role and I'm proud to represent Wells Fargo as we work with nonprofits, advocacy groups and community leaders to address racial equity and equal opportunity for diverse communities," Dixon said in a statement. "It's more important now than ever that we are engaged in honest, transparent and tough conversations with our external stakeholders on how to do better and do more as a financial services company and a community partner." Wells Fargo officials said Dixon has been instrumental in helping the company take a number of new actions around D&I, including; helping create a new diversity leader role reporting directly to the CEO, requiring all managers to participate in new anti-racism training, and requiring the Operating Committee leaders to meet new D&I-related commitments. A 26-year veteran of Wells Fargo, Gigi is also a Vice Chair for the NAACP Foundation and is a Corporate Advisory Board member for UnidosUS.
