Our Communication, Education, and Awareness pillar focuses on creating a culture of inclusion through creative events, communications, and ongoing activities that increase awareness around the diversity within our firm as well as build an environment of inclusiveness.
Our Attract and Retain pillar executes the key D&I activities that are critical to increasing the diversity in our firm. Under this pillar, we focus on recruiting talented and diverse consultants; regularly reviewing our diversity metrics; and tracking and improving retention.
