Jean Lee (She/Her/Hers) Email & Phone Number

I am the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Minority Corporate Counsel Association (MCCA), the preeminent advisor on diversity, equity, and inclusion to C-suites across corporate America. As an immigrant woman of color with a background in social work and corporate law, I bring an intersectional approach to advocate for systems-level change to create greater opportunities for those who, like me, are building careers in defiance of the status quo.My 25 plus years of experience as a clinical social worker and litigator addressing some of the most complicated societal and business issues have positioned me to serve as a leading solutions-oriented advisor on diversity, equity and inclusion to achieve the greatest impact. As President & CEO, we established a researched-based management consulting practice to help organizations develop sustainable diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) strategies; identified and promoted more than a dozen high potential talent for executive level positions in the C-suite; benchmarked the first-ever inclusion survey, which has been used as a framework for creating an inclusive culture; and established the first-ever comprehensive law firm diversity scorecard measuring quantitative and qualitative data to better understand what truly moves the needle to create a diverse, inclusive and equitable culture. As a result, MCCA is moving from being a thoughtful convener of people and ideas to a thought-leader and advisor on DEI issues in the workplace. I have been recognized by numerous organizations and a few are highlighted below:• 2018 Vanguard Award - San Francisco Asian American Bar Association• 2018 Edge Education Award - Council of Legal Education and Opportunity• 2015 Trailblazer Honoree - Korean American Lawyers Association of Greater New York• 2014 Catalyst: Change Agent I Law from the Council of Urban ProfessionalsIf you want a system-level change that is sustainable, reach out to MCCA to learn more how we can partner with you!
