Mintel’s Valuable 500 Commitment:
Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) are the heart of who we are, and what we want Mintel to be.
Although we are a diverse organisation – of over 1,000 employees across 15 countries, speaking nearly 50 languages, and representing around 60 nationalities – we are committed to doing more to help deliver Mintel’s diversity vision:
“To seek and value diverse talent and unique perspectives to drive sustainable success for our business and people.”
To help us realise our vision we’ve made the following 7 commitments:
-
Appoint a Global Diversity Manager to help drive all our DEI initiatives across our global offices, which also includes ensuring that we enhance our understanding of disability requirements.
-
Dedicate specific time for each regional leadership team to discuss disability inclusion.
-
Create a Social Awareness Content Task Force to ensure our research and client recommendations reflect relevant topics such as disability.
-
Ensure accessibility needs are incorporated into all our new and existing products, while training our development teams to further enhance our accessibility capabilities.
-
Establish Employee Resource Groups in each global region to ensure local diversity, accessibility and inclusion issues are championed on a frequent and ongoing basis.
-
Launch a new Leadership Development initiative to help deliver greater representation of diverse talent among our senior leadership.
-
Increase our MintelGives community support programmes, including the mentoring of small, minority businesses and disadvantaged youth.
