Our Commitment to DEI

We aim to create a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment so that all team members can contribute to our values and business success. Each and all team members are expected to act in accordance with the following commitments to diversity, equity, and inclusion:  

• Compassion and Respect. We believe in the dignity and worth of every person. We appreciate and deliberately seek out the unique qualities and beliefs that all our team members and partners bring to the table. We believe differences make us stronger; we welcome and embrace them. 

• Reject and Challenge Bigotry. We will not work with any organizations or individuals who promote or foster racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or other biases of injustice. When faced with unconscious bias, we will challenge it and educate team members and partners. We strive to behave in ways that do not offend, intimidate, degrade, insult, or humiliate others. 

• Communication. We value honest, simple, and clear communication. We adapt our communication styles so they may be as accessible as possible for all team members and partners.  

• Work Environment. We provide a safe, respectful, and open environment where all team members can regularly discuss issues related to diversity and inclusion, one in which they can feel comfortable sharing concerns and beliefs and confident that others will listen to understand. We implement appropriate workplace support based on our employees’ and partners’ needs.  

• Ongoing Education. We foster ongoing diversity, equity, and inclusion-related learning opportunities, discussions, and practices to encourage exploration, learning, and growth individually and collectively. We are committed to self-improvement. 

• Community Engagement. We encourage team member engagement with people, activities, events, and causes that positively support diversity in the communities in which we live and interact.  

• Accountability. We listen. We challenge each other and are generous in both giving and accepting feedback. We believe good feedback is kind, respectful, clear, and constructive. We hold each other accountable for ensuring a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment. We adjust our practices when we fall short.  

We pledge to continuously learn and identify ways to best demonstrate these commitments through action.
