Diversity & Inclusion governance
D&I is championed by senior leadership across all of our offices, and through our Inclusion Council members, which is led by our D&I Partner Sponsor, Claire Carroll. Our D&I People Networks also have visible Partner Sponsor advocates who are committed to driving change. Our D&I progress and impact is regularly measured and monitored, reported to the Board, communicated internally and, where appropriate, externally. We participate in external benchmarks to assess our performance and continue to challenge ourselves.
