We seek out leaders who act as catalysts for inclusion and equity, and those leaders from organizations that enjoy great success in harnessing the power of a diverse team. Over the past three years, nearly 50 percent of our firm's placements have been diverse (people of color and/or women). Our goal is to be an organization that reflects the dynamic clients and communities we serve and that supports them in effecting meaningful, permanent change and real progress.
