Diversity, Equality & Inclusion

Diversity, equality and inclusion are critical strategic priorities at Linesight, guiding our global teams and Executive Board of Management.

We understand that a truly diverse and inclusive workplace positively impacts every aspect of our business and the world around us. That’s why we are committed to building teams that reflect the diverse communities in which we operate.

Diversity, equality and inclusion are critical strategic priorities at Linesight, guiding our global teams and Executive Board of Management. We recognize that true diversity requires intentional effort, and we strive for balance across all our offices worldwide.

To foster this culture and demonstrate our progress to both our teams and industry peers, we have identified three core DE&I pillars that shape our strategy.

  • Employee Voice
  • Employee Voice

Creating safe forums and ways in which to listen to our teams is key to understanding the diverse communities within our offices. In each of our regions of operation, we have DE&I regional champions who are connected at a local level to our teams. Our champions organize and facilitate a range of employee voice forums which we use to inform our policies and improve our workplace. They also host local DE&I groups and events which foster and promote DE&I initiatives and values.

How we connect and understand each other forms the basis of our relationships, and as a relationship based business we see this as a key element to driving our DE&I strategy. Learning programs, story sharing and themed events which build awareness and educate our teams are ways in which we build understanding and educate our people.

Creating policy that builds and protects our teams is fundamental to driving change, as it governs the way in which we attract and keep our people. We work to ensure our policies consider every member of the team in an equal way, provide the same opportunities and align with global best practice.

A people focused culture

We are building a diverse and inclusive organization founded on the basis of having a safe culture which enables all of our people to be their true selves.

Our culture is what makes us different. It defines us, it guides us in how we behave, it energizes us and motivates our teams. We are a people business and relationships within our teams and with our clients are hugely important to us.

DE&I Forums and Groups

We are a relationship based organization and building relationships with people from different cultures, often many different cultures, is key in building diverse communities in our workplace. We understand that in order to work with people from different cultural groups effectively, we need to build strong and caring relationships based on trust, understanding, and shared goals. Our Cultures Connected forum is a conscious initiative focused on helping our teams build relationships with people from other cultures. These connections are established and developed through a range of cultural based activities hosted by our Regional Champions. Activities include cultural themed events, story sharing sessions, webinars and insight articles related to cultural differences.
Women at Linesight is a global network that provides formal and informal mentoring, training and relationship building opportunities for our female workforce. Supporting each other to achieve together, our women-focused programs educate, develop and nurture our female workforce to help them reach their potential. With participation levels in the industry historically low, the Women in Linesight initiative strives to advance parity for women in our workforce and society.
The LGBTXI+ Network, which we call PRISM, brings together LGBTXI+ team members to ensure gender identity equality across our organization. It also provides mentorship and support at a local level to every member. The network promotes awareness both internally and externally through a range of activities including; newsletters, events and partnerships within local communities on a range of LGBTXI+ issues.
MIND, which stands for Mental Inclusivity and NeuroDiversity, is our Employee Resource Group that is dedicated to fostering a workplace environment that celebrates the rich tapestry of neurodiversity. MIND underpins our recognition and honouring of the diverse ways in which individuals' brains function and process information. Our goal is to create a culture where neurodivergent individuals feel valued, supported and empowered, to bring their unique perspectives and talents to the forefront. We believe that through embracing neuro-abilities, we can unlock innovation, creativity, and excellence within our organisation. Through education, advocacy, and community building, MIND strives to raise awareness about neurodiversity and break down barriers that could hinder the inclusion of neurodivergent individuals in the workplace. We provide resources, support networks and training opportunities, to help all employees better understand and appreciate neurodiversity.
