diversity, equity, and inclusion

Diverse and inclusive workplaces are essential in meeting the needs of today’s diverse clients, communities and other key stakeholders. An investment in a diverse, more inclusive workplace ensures diversity of thought, broader ideas, and supports greater creativity and innovation. Organizations looking to improve gender equity within their companies should intentionally work to recruit, develop, and promote women at all levels. In addition to recruiting women and providing opportunities to take part in employee resource groups and broader development programs, companies should ensure that women are receiving mentoring and sponsorship as both are vital in career development.
