NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Lever welcomes Angela Dixon, SVP and Chief Diversity Officer at Berkshire Bank, to the Lever Board of Directors.
Her work centers on how Berkshire Bank can reach diverse populations including BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities in a variety of ways to enhance their access to banking.
Before joining Berkshire Bank in 2021, Dixon owned and operated Dixon Consulting II, LLC, a management consulting firm focused on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI), and Talent Management. Working with the Community Foundation for the Capital Region, she developed a DEI program focused on nonprofit board diversity.
"When I look at DEI, what I can bring to the table is the lens by which we ask questions pertinent to a more diverse population and its relevance to business strategy and sustained economic growth within our communities," Dixon said.
Dixon also served as the VP of Talent & Inclusion at the Capital Region Chamber in New York, where she helped create the Inclusive Leadership Series, an educational program for business managers.
Dixon has a BA in Political Science and MBA from the University of Albany. She is also a Senior Certified Human Resources Professional through the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM-SCP).
"We are pleased to have Angela Dixon join our board," said Cairn Cross, Lever Board of Trustees Chair. "Her career experience will be invaluable to Lever as it stands up, then expands, the Massachusetts Founders Network later this year."
