Korn Ferry’s Valuable 500 Commitment:
Korn Ferry has a deep commitment to diversity, inclusion and equity.
That commitment can be seen through a number of initiatives and actions. It starts with tone at the top with Inclusion purposefully listed as the first of our Company’s four core values and is led globally by our Chief Diversity Officer, JT Saunders.
Korn Ferry UK & Ireland has established an Inclusion, Diversity & Equity Steering Committee to promote equality and inclusivity from within. The committee is composed of a diverse membership, drawn from all lines of business and bringing together colleagues of different abilities and backgrounds as well as those who bring knowledge, personal experience, different perspectives and a commitment to equity and inclusion for all.
Its objective is to share best practice, explore creative solutions and deliver actionable outcomes to ensure Korn Ferry UK & Ireland espouses its values, delivers on its commitments and progresses on its journey to provide the most inclusive and supportive culture and working environment for all team members.
Korn Ferry UK & Ireland is a Disability Confident Employer; we have committed to
ensuring our recruitment process is inclusive and accessible and that disabled people and those with long term health conditions have the opportunities to fulfil their potential and realise their aspirations.
When working with our clients, we strongly believe that inclusive teams which comprise members with diverse experiences, abilities and perspectives can address problems more effectively and are more prepared to challenge accepted norms, make better decisions and therefore improve organisational performance.
We look closely at conscious and unconscious bias and openly discuss them as part of the search process. We actively encourage diversity representation in all its forms, including people with disabilities in order to access the broadest pools of talent and bring knowledge and lived experiences from as many dimensions as possible.
Diversity at Korn Ferry includes but is not limited to age, disability, ethnicity/national origin, gender, gender identity or expression, race, religious belief, education, background and sexual orientation; and encompasses the unique characteristics, traits, perspectives, skills and talents of all our colleagues.
We are committed to building an inclusive culture enabling diversity to thrive, by creating an environment where each individual is valued, celebrated for their differences, and enabled to contribute to their full potential.
