We all have something worth bringing to the table.
We believe that who you are as a person makes you uniquely capable of contributing in a way no one else can. Every day we strive to foster a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels welcome, valued, seen and heard. Diversity and inclusion is part of our company culture — from the way we support our colleagues and clients to the ways we show up for our communities.
The time for diversity and inclusion is now.
Our long-standing initiative, Inclusion Now! (IN!) was put in place to ensure we’re holding ourselves accountable, meeting our belonging goals, and setting new goals as we grow. Our IN! Committee has been critical in helping create a safe and inclusive workplace. Members work to establish diversity and inclusion key performance indicators (KPIs) and regularly revisit them to ensure our efforts are making an impact.
The IN! mission statement: Better Together
To create a diverse and inclusive environment that includes our clients, colleagues, and community; where individual ideas, knowledge, and perspectives are accepted and respected. To create a safe environment for all colleagues to be heard, share their honest opinions, and feel valued; Because People Matter!
Supporting diversity through Colleague Resource Groups.
We’re always working to provide support for all minority groups represented by BPMers, including LGBTQIA+ and non-binary team members. One way we do that is by enabling colleagues to find common ground through Colleague Resource Groups (CRGs).
Our current CRGs and their missions:
- LGBTQIA+ Network
Celebrating who we are, as LGBTQIA PLUS and their allies, by embracing those who want to be themselves in a safe and non-judgmental space.
- AAPI Network
To celebrate our Asian American Pacific Islander heritage through education, inclusion and communication by increasing our visibility through spotlighting our achievements and contributing to our social and business communities.
- Women’s Initiative Now!
To inspire, encourage, empower and connect women to succeed together in life. To create an inclusive and equal environment for female colleagues of all ages and levels to feel supported.
- Black Network
To drive the recruitment, growth, development, and retention of Black colleagues in all areas of the firm. To provide BPM with a critical perspective on issues facing the Black community through awareness and colleague engagement.
Empowering your journey to the C-Suite.
Our leaders work to implement and share best practices around helping women and minority groups be successful in their careers. We strive to elevate diverse groups of people — women, LGBTQ, minorities and under-represented groups of all ages and abilities — into leadership roles across the firm. In fact, BPM has been recognized many times over as the “Best CPA Firm for Women,” thanks to our focus on equitable opportunities and women’s leadership initiatives.
