Dawn Frazier-Bohnert joined Liberty Mutual Insurance in the spring of 2013 to shape the new office of Diversity and Inclusion. As Senior Vice President, and Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer, Dawn is responsible for leading the design, development, and implementation of Liberty Mutual’s diversity and inclusion strategy and programs. This includes internal and external communications, metrics and measurements, benchmarking, external partnerships, and the development of employee resource groups.
Prior to joining Liberty Mutual Insurance, Dawn was Chief Administrative Officer and Partner at Global Novations, a Korn/Ferry International Company, where she developed their human capital strategy and led their post-merger company through culture-shaping efforts. Before working with Global Novations, she was at The Gillette Company as Vice President of Global Diversity and Inclusion, where she developed and led their Global Diversity Strategic Plan. Dawn has also held HR leadership positions at Lotus/IBM, Fidelity Investments, and Millennium Pharmaceuticals.
Because she grew up in an Air Force family, Dawn lived and traveled all over the world. She believes that these experiences helped her to develop the ability to be effective in almost any culture. Building her cultural dexterity has enabled her to learn to navigate new organizations, and to value and appreciate differences.
Dawn attended Mount Holyoke College and graduated from Boston University with a Bachelor of Science in Rehabilitation Counseling. She served on the Board for the Black Achievers Branch, YMCA of Greater Boston and was a volunteer Big Sister for over ten years. She is currently a member of the Women’s Network Advisory Board for the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce.
