At Protiviti, we strive to complement the diverse solutions we bring to the marketplace with high-performing professionals from a variety of backgrounds. At the same time, we create an environment that is inclusive, collaborative, and even family-like. We are a team-based organization, and it is essential to our business and to our success that everyone feels that they are included in the team, that their ideas and contributions will be considered in our problem- solving work, and that they are fully empowered.
We believe embracing diversity and inclusion are the right and responsible things to do, and we also know they are vital to our success. Broadening our capabilities by tapping into diverse backgrounds and experiences is how we can best serve our clients. As a global organization, we need a global team of professionals, each bringing unique perspectives to bear for our clients.
Our Diversity and Inclusion initiatives are designed to attract, develop, and retain the most talented professionals in the market regardless of race, gender, age, sexual orientation or any other dimension of diversity. Each of us has a different experience to contribute to our company and to our clients. It is the breadth of these experiences, and how they all work together, that makes us succeed.
Our Inclusion Council provides strategic direction and support to our employees in their grass-roots efforts. The Inclusion Council comprised of Managing Directors, Employee Network Leaders from around the globe as well as key leaders in HR. The steering committee is gender-balanced and includes representatives from a variety of ethnic backgrounds, reflecting the blend of our broader workforce.
Our Inclusion Champions Network is a diverse spectrum of individuals from different offices, bringing together employees from across solutions and career levels to design and implement diversity programming. Serving as change agents, these individuals connect people on a local level to the bigger strategy – through events, educational programming, and Employee Network Groups.
Employee Network Groups are local, grass-roots groups that organize both in-person and online to focus on promoting diversity initiatives within the company. While the activities in these groups are driven by employees, they are supported by leadership and provide our employees an “Opportunity to Have an Impact” as promised in our People Promises.
