This is MillerKnoll's first time receiving this recognition. The company was honored for its work in increasing awareness of disability issues both internally and through its work with clients.
這是米勒諾爾首次獲得這種認可。該公司因其在內部以及通過與客戶的合作提高對殘疾問題的認識方面所做的工作而感到榮幸。
This award underscores MillerKnoll's Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) efforts and the work of the associate-led Business Resource Group (BRG), ENABLED, which advocates for accessibility and inclusion.
該獎項強調了MillerKnoll在多元化、公平、包容和歸屬感（DEIB）方面所做的努力，以及由員工領導的商業資源小組（BRG）ENABLED的工作，該小組倡導無障礙和包容性。
Cheryl Kern, Vice President, Global Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging, MillerKnoll commented, "Disability Matters is a renowned diversity thought leader, and a forerunner in elevating the needs of the disabled community. We are proud to see our commitment to increasing equity and access acknowledged across our organization and in partnership with our clients. As an industry leader, MillerKnoll remains committed to leveraging best practices and policies, to better address the needs of our associates and stakeholders."
米勒諾爾全球多元化、公平、包容和歸屬感副總裁謝麗爾·克恩評論說， “Disability Matters是著名的多元化思想領袖，也是提升殘疾人社區需求的先行者。我們很自豪地看到我們對增加公平性和准入的承諾在整個組織中以及與客戶的合作中得到認可。作爲行業領導者，MillerKnoll仍然致力於利用最佳實踐和政策，更好地滿足我們的員工和利益相關者的需求。”
Disability Matters also recognized MillerKnoll's work with clients, specifically the company's role in supporting the design of The Harkin Institute for Public Policy and Citizen Engagement at Drake University. The Institute's new progressive facility was imagined using inclusive design principles, providing an equitable experience for all people.
Disability Matters還認可了MillerKnoll與客戶的合作，特別是該公司在支持德雷克大學哈金公共政策與公民參與研究所設計方面所發揮的作用。該研究所的新先進設施採用包容性設計原則構想，爲所有人提供公平的體驗。
Led by renowned architectural firm BNIM, in collaboration with the Harkin Institute and MillerKnoll, four guiding principles were developed for the Harkin Center's building and site design: generous space, equitable experiences, clear path, and individual empowerment. MillerKnoll applied those tenets to its furniture strategy, contributing to a site that goes beyond universal design to be truly inclusive. Local to Des Moines, Iowa where the Harkin Institute is located, dealer Pigott also collaborated on every stage of the project.
由著名建築公司BNIM領導，與哈金研究所和米勒諾爾合作，爲哈金中心的建築和場地設計制定了四項指導原則：寬敞的空間、公平的體驗、清晰的道路和個人賦權。MillerKnoll 將這些原則應用到其傢俱戰略中，爲打造一個超越通用設計而真正具有包容性的網站做出了貢獻。在哈金研究所所在的愛荷華州得梅因市，經銷商皮戈特還在該項目的每個階段進行了合作。
Jason Rosenblatt, Senior Design Strategist, MillerKnoll added, "A significant portion of the design process (for the Harkin Institute) occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic, and this passionate team was challenged to drive forward by shifting to an entirely virtual design and advisory process. We are incredibly proud of the outcome and look forward to our continued work as an advocate for more Inclusive Design led practices and policies around the globe."
米勒諾爾高級設計策略師傑森·羅森布拉特補充說， “（哈金研究所）設計過程的很大一部分發生在 COVID-19 疫情期間，這支充滿激情的團隊面臨着通過轉向完全虛擬的設計和諮詢流程來推動前進的挑戰。我們對結果感到非常自豪，並期待我們繼續努力，倡導在全球範圍內倡導更多包容性設計的實踐和政策。”
