People at the heart of our development
Diversity, one of Forvis Mazars’ key values
Forvis Mazars fosters a diverse workplace in which all members of our team can thrive. Seeking to hire and promote women and men from all backgrounds benefits both our company and our clients. Having a range of viewpoints gives us better insight in overcoming challenges and a deeper understanding of our clients’ needs. Diverse teams create innovation and lateral problem-solving. Forvis Mazars stands guard against all forms of discrimination and offers its professionals equal opportunities and treatment, regardless of their racial or ethnic origin, gender, religion, age or disability. For instance, Forvis Mazars has signed up to the United Nations Free and Equal Campaign, officially showing its support to the Standards of Conduct for Business, tackling discrimination against lesbian, gay, bi, trans, and intersex people.
Women@Forvis Mazars
Forvis Mazars focuses on a better representation of women in the organisation, mainly in management positions. Our involvement is carried out through various actions of raising awareness internally, developing an internal female network through a collaborative platform of discussions and a programme to identify female talents who will benefit from specific support and development action plans. Women@ForvisMazars are a central part of the firm’s strategic plan to enhance the development and retention of women leaders, creating an environment where all our best and brightest excel.
