Dramatic changes have recently transformed the foundation of global business. Companies are confronted by changing market conditions, globalization, digitization, and evolving corporate cultures. A global pandemic has brought even further challenges to the stage together with dramatic gaps of inequality. As August Leadership, we stand for gender and racial equality, pay equity and inclusive workplaces and culture. We stand against racism. Our work with our clients accelerates and optimizes their strategies and initiatives in these areas.
As the eco-systems, business world and operating models continue to transform, the change is being driven by highly sophisticated, data driven, and strategic talent. The diversity of this talent will create a difference and be a competitive edge if they can work in an inclusive environment with principles of equity and fairness being an internal part of their sustainability strategies and ESG goals.
August Leadership’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Search and Consulting practice provides clients with a holistic approach to this space in addition to our direct support to Boards, CEOs and CHROs with the overall understanding of their business in relation to diversity, equity and inclusion. As trusted advisors to our clients, we first understand and assess the needs and then develop a holistic plan. Executive search is only one part of the equation, which is important, but not enough.
Our practice team brings a wealth of experience and knowledge in terms of geographies, functions, levels, organizations and industries.
