Most recently, Tucker served at the senior director of inclusion
and diversity at Darden Restaurants Inc., where he led the
development of a company-wide inclusion strategy to more closely
align to the business and support an environment where all
employees could reach their greatest potential.
“Randall has a proven track record of delivering diversity and
inclusion programs that promote empowering cultures and drive
business results,” said Tim Murphy, general counsel, Mastercard.
“For several years, we have reframed our efforts as a journey from
diversity to inclusion. We look forward to Randall joining the team
and further solidifying our commitment to and support of inclusion
at every level, in every office and in every country in which we
operate.”
Tucker and his team will build and drive global programs that
support efforts to find, recruit, develop and retain the best and
brightest talent. Among these activities will be the continued
support and guidance of the company’s Business Resource Groups,
volunteers who are drawn together in common interests to promote
cross-cultural awareness and deliver business solutions.
He succeeds Donna Johnson, who retired in December 2016,
following a 22-year career at Mastercard, the last six as chief
diversity officer.
Tucker brings more than 15 years of award-winning experience to
the role. Prior to joining Darden, he led the transformation of
Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide’s diversity and inclusion
strategy from a U.S.-focused model to a global model. During his
tenure, he led the development of the organization’s first global
initiative to enhance career opportunities for women at senior
levels.
Earlier in his career, he served in various sales and human
resource roles at Marriott International.
Tucker holds a Bachelor of Arts from James Madison University.
He has been a guest lecturer at Georgetown University’s School of
Continuing Studies and is a Six Sigma Black Belt.
