BIRMINGHAM, Ala., June 2, 2022 - John Siverling, director of private markets and impact advocacy for OneAscent, has been selected to join The Viewpoint Diversity Index Advisory Council. As part of the Council, Siverling will provide valuable insight for the Viewpoint Diversity Score and Business Index.

A project of Alliance Defending Freedom, the Viewpoint Diversity Score launched the Business Index on Thursday, May 26, 2022. The Index is the first comprehensive benchmark designed to measure corporate respect for free speech, religious freedoms and free markets.

“I am honored to join with the other distinguished members of the Business Viewpoint Diversity Council,” said Siverling. “It's vital that organizations foster a culture of respect for employees' religious and social viewpoints, and I am excited to be a part of a group that is committed to recognizing the business value of viewpoint diversity.”

The Council is dedicated to encouraging businesses to respect all employees’ diverse viewpoints and perspectives. To determine each firm’s score, the Index tracks companies’ social footprints within three areas of activity: market, workplace and public square. Using The Viewpoint Diversity Score and Business Index, companies can create cultures that show customers, employees and stakeholders their commitment to the principles of democracy in America.

Siverling brings over 30 years of business experience and over 20 years of venture finance experience to the Council. He currently oversees OneAscent Capital, which proactively develops a program of values-aligned private market investment options.
