Growing a diverse and talented culture

As a people first company, our ambition is to ensure an inclusive and diverse working environment which is engaging with meaningful work, where people can explore and grow.

A People First company

As a digital consultancy, it is crucial that we can attract and retain the best talents. Throughout the year, we have been actively working on projects to bring People First to a new level and strengthen our standing as an employer of choice. We launched a new career framework to improve personal development and growth. We also implemented a new HR system to support career development that enhances the employee’s impact and ensures streamlined processes across our global company.

Living our values

Our commitment to living our values and Leadership Principles has continued during 2023. We ensure that new employees are introduced to our company culture, and we have integrated them into our career pathways.

Promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion

In 2023, we also made significant strides in promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I). We launched a new DE&I course in our Columbus Academy to help gain a better understanding of the significance and impact of diversity, equity, and inclusion. We launched a new DE&I policy that provides a better understanding of the direction.

In addition, we launched global a network for women in Columbus, named Women Inspirational Network (WIN), to inspire with role models and strengthen women’s network. Lastly, we have strengthened both our onboarding and offboarding processes with Candidate NPS and global exit surveys with a particular focus on inclusion.
