Diversity and Inclusion

We’re All In on diversity, equity and inclusion

The world needs different. It’s by bringing together varied lived experiences, perspectives and thoughts that we generate ideas and build creative solutions.

We all thrive when what makes us different is embraced. At SK&P, we know we can’t be advanced as a firm by all being the same, which is why diversity, equity and inclusion is one of our strategic priorities. It is central to the kind of firm we want to be

We’re committed to supporting a culture that drives diversity, equity and inclusion. Every day, we’re working hard to create an environment where everyone feels that they can bring their authentic selves to work. To be comfortable and confident to be whom they are in the workplace. To feel like they belong. To be All In.

We continually listen using tools such as focus groups and surveys, alongside input from our affinity groups, to understand the wide range of experiences and barriers that our diverse colleagues face. And we hold ourselves accountable, with data and transparency at the heart of our strategy. This enables us to both measure progress and be honest with ourselves when the progress is not what it should be.

And our commitment extends beyond our walls, utilizing our expertise on a wide range of global issues in collaboration with clients and other organizations.

We’re proud of the progress we’ve made, but we’re not there yet. We’ll keep asking hard questions and making brave decisions until we are.

Supporting our colleagues with disabilities.

Sometimes what makes us different is visible. Sometimes it isn’t immediately obvious. We know that differences can be life-changing and can change over time.

We believe having a disability shouldn’t be a barrier to anyone achieving their potential, and so we are committed to learning and understanding the experiences of our colleagues with disabilities. 

Whether it is physical, neuro or any other kind of difference, we want everyone to feel supported to bring their true self to work, knowing they are valued and always included for who they are.

We want all our colleagues to thrive and are committed to providing the support and adjustments needed by our people with additional needs.

 

The levels and types of help required vary for each person, so we work closely with individuals to understand their needs on a case-by-case basis and ensure they feel confident in pursuing their careers without disability getting in the way.

 

As with every other area of diversity, it is everyone’s responsibility to be conscious of the extra challenges some colleagues can face, and to provide the support for people to be as open as they choose about their disabilities. Yet another reason why we put so much emphasis on creating an environment where everyone feels that they can bring their authentic selves to work. Where everyone feels that they belong, no matter what.
