Jimi Vaughn will be joining Company 3’s senior leadership team as VP of diversity & engagement. 

Vaughn has a proven record of implementing successful programs in diversity, inclusion, engagement, development and organizational effectiveness with a focus on creating a thriving employee culture. By holding engaging and thought-provoking seminars and workshops, Vaughn motivates and encourages leaders and their teams to initiate change with tangible, actionable processes.

Vaughn stated, “The driver for me is to ensure every employee feels empowered and safe to show up to work, fully as themselves.”

Company 3 has also launched an initiative, “CO3 for Good,” an employee-led collective backed by the company’s executive leadership team that will spearhead and drive change within the business by participating in mentorship programs, building on policies and committing to change “for good.”

CEO and founder Stefan Sonnenfeld commented, “Our focus is on continuing to shape our company culture which we hope in turn, will impact the industry as a whole. CO3 for Good will encompass a number of initiatives that we, as a team, feel passionately about which we look forward to sharing with our clients and partners in the coming months.” 

Co3 for Good extends to their creative services family, Method Studios, Powerhouse VFX, Stereo-D, Level 3, Material, Encore VFX and Beast.   

Chief operations officer Ella Vieira commented, “CO3 for Good gives our entire creative group a strong framework for ensuring accountability and action. The passion Jimi brings to this important role is mirrored by our staff; it has been incredibly inspiring to watch our CO3 for Good volunteers quickly come together as a team despite the physical distance we’re all feeling right now. This collective focus on making meaningful change is already driving progress on both internal and external-facing initiatives that I know will make a real impact.”
