EXCLUSIVE: Lisa Collins is Warner Bros. Discovery’s new Group Vice President, overseeing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion employee initiatives across North America. She will report to Chief DEI Officer Asif Sadiq.
Prior to Collins, Karen Horne served in the position before her exit in late June as the company was rethinking the DEI division.
The WBD vet’s new duties will include serving employees’ regional needs and creating global opportunities around content and pipeline program initiatives. Additionally, Collins will create and implement internal DEI programs including: designing business unit-specific programs focused on recruitment, retention, progression, performance management, leadership development and employee engagement; working with executives in the region to further embed DEI in all areas of WBD’s operations; and shepherding the growth of WBD’s Business Resource Groups.
“I am thrilled to join the DEI team. Under Asif’s leadership, the DEI organization has become a shining example of WBD’s commitment to training, retaining, and promoting talented colleagues from across the company. I am committed to this impactful approach and advancing our DEI initiatives to ensure our employees feel a sense of belonging and enthusiasm to build their careers here,” Collins said in a statement.
In her previous role as Head of People & Culture Partners for Production at the company, Collins led the team responsible for providing HR support to cast and crew members working on WBD productions around the world. Earlier, she served as the Director of Production HR at Netflix, leading the global team focused on providing HR support to production cast and crews. Collins has also held HR leadership positions at Warner Bros.
