Powering Inclusive Cultures

CHRISTINE LOUISE JONES is an award-winning writer of documentary films, corporate videos, websites, blogs and instructional design. In 2016 she became one of the cofounders of Spectra Diversity Inc. and is its current CEO. Spectra Diversity was named by ManageHR as one of the "Top 10 Emerging Diversity and Inclusion Companies of 2022."
While some come to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) from their lived experience, Chris developed her devotion to DEI work through her belief in social justice and her writing about homelessness, the environment, domestic abuse, sexual abuse and DEI topics. Raised in a lily-white suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota, her international travels and concern for the rights of others led her to finish her working career using DEI data to drive change and power inclusive cultures.
Chris currently lives in Minnesota and continues to enjoy the winter snow as well as the summer heat and humidity. She continues to hope the Minnesota Vikings will win the Super Bowl.
