2021 Marketing: Diversity and the Bottom Line

How to Write with Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Marketing Communication

AMA Alaska Professional Development Series


 

Are you writing content that matches your company’s or client’s core values? When you write

for your company’s newsletter or create a client’s marketing campaign the words you use can

reflect unconscious personal biases. Join AMA Alaska Chapter and keynote speaker Kimberly

Waller, Founder and CEO of the Women’s Power League of Alaska, as she takes a “delightfully

uncomfortable” look at writing communication through a lens of inclusion and guides us

through examples of what can go wrong and how to be aware of exclusionary and prejudicial

language.

 

Who should attend: Any professional communicator or marketer whose job description includes

strategizing and writing on behalf of their employer or client.

 

 

Kimberly Y. Waller, Founder/CEO Women’s Power League of Alaska, is an award-winning on-air

radio host and producer and was one of the pioneering DJ’s at Anchorage’s KFAT 92.9, Alaska’s

first Hip-Hop/Rythmic station. She helped propel the station to the number one spot during her

tenure as morning co-host and mid-day host, which led her to 103.9 The Beat in Philadelphia,

catapulting her from Market 172 to the very large Market 6. She was then recruited by MTV

Radio as an on-air host, writer and producer, also allowing her to serve as MTV Radio’s on-

location correspondent for key events such as The MTV Video Music Awards, The Grammy

Awards, MTV’s Total Request Live New Year’s Eve Bash, VH1 Divas, and more. She later joined

the on-air team at Power 105.1 New York where she launched and hosted the stations’s public

affairs show “Power on the Block”, receiving local recognition and a national Gracie Award for

her role as Host/Producer in the public affairs category.

 

Waller received her B.A. in Mass Media from New York University, where she was awarded the

Stenbeck Scholarship and recipient of the Founders Day Award for academic achievement. She

also holds an A.L.M. in Journalism from Harvard University.

 

Kim recently returned to Alaska with her family to launch a non-profit.
