WATSONVILLE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Our strategy comes from the collective action of one company – Granite!” said Granite VP of People and Culture, Jorge Quezada. “We are grateful for the contributions of our employees and specifically the contributions of our board members Louis Caldera and Gaddi Vasquez, for their commitment to the success of Granite and the Latino community."
During the Convening, LCDA will present its highest recognition, The Corporate Visionary Award to Granite Construction and its board members for their commitment to advancing Latino representation on their corporate boards. Honorees share the distinction of having two or more US Latinos serve on their boards. In addition, Michael F. McNally, Granite Board Chair, will be recognized as an exemplary leader.
“At Granite, inclusion is of utmost priority. We embrace individual differences and similarities and are committed to our inclusive environment where everyone is welcomed,” said Granite President & CEO, Kyle Larkin. “We value, respect, and rely on the uniqueness of our employees, clients, and the communities where we live and work. Granite’s culture is inclusive of the diversity we enjoy today, tomorrow, and into the future.”
