\nJBG SMITH Releases First Annual Diversity and Inclusion Report\n<\/p>\n

BETHESDA, Md.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nJBG SMITH, (NYSE: JBGS<\/a>), a leading owner and developer of high-quality, mixed-use properties in the Washington, DC market, today released its inaugural Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) Report<\/a>, highlighting its comprehensive, multi-year D&I strategy, along with some of the notable progress made in D&I over the past calendar year.\n<\/p>\n

\nIn 2020, JBG SMITH formalized its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion and took pivotal steps toward building a more diverse and inclusive workplace. With a focus on cultural and behavioral change, the company has implemented new systems, practices, and processes developed to embed diversity and inclusion deeper into the organization. From increasing leadership competency and raising awareness, to driving accountability company-wide, JBG SMITH has strengthened its efforts to foster a workplace that is representative of its diverse clients, stakeholders, and communities served.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cIn a landmark year, amidst a global pandemic and heightened racial tensions, the importance of focusing on Diversity and Inclusion in our workplace and communities is evident,\u201d said Matt Kelly, JBG SMITH CEO. \u201cWe launched our annual D&I report at a time when we knew it was critical for us to demonstrate to our employees, peers, investors, and customers, that this is a priority at JBG SMITH. And for us, Diversity and Inclusion isn\u2019t just the right thing to do, it\u2019s the smart thing to do \u2013 for our business, our employees, and the communities we call home.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cBeing transparent in our approach and sharing the goals we\u2019ve established for ourselves, allow us to hold ourselves accountable,\u201d added Dawnita Wilson, Vice President of Diversity and Inclusion. \u201cThat accountability is what creates real change. Our hope is to look back on this first report to not only be reminded of where we started, but more importantly, how far we\u2019ve come.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
