ABOUT US | VALUES
Diversity, equity, and inclusion
Embracing and prioritizing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) is a strategic business initiative at Credera and necessary for our growth and each team member's wellbeing.
We strive to create a culture that is an inclusive environment for everyone, and to build a workforce that is reflective of the communities and clients we serve. This is how we thrive.

OUR CAPABILITIES
Explore our thinking.
Leveraging learned best practices from our internal DE&I experiences, we’re committed to helping clients transform their own workforces with DE&I practices.
Credera has a propriety approach and proven set of services, backed with extensive change management expertise, that meet companies where they are and equip them to take the next strategic and sustainable step in their DE&I journeys.
OUR STRATEGY
Building diverse, equitable, and inclusive workforces.
To advance our DE&I journey, we developed a 5-stage Maturity Model that guides our internal assessments. We additionally leverage this model when helping clients mature in their DE&I initiatives.
Stage 1: Compliance
Ensuring organizations are complying with government mandates that promote diversity in the workplace.
Stage 2: Awareness
Defining and tracking important metrics vital to our understanding of diversity, equity, and inclusion within our firm.
Stage 3: Application
Empowering employees by implementing strategies designed to foster diversity and inclusivity internally, such as forming employee resource groups (ERGs).
Stage 4: Integration
Normalizing our previously applied DEI&W strategies, to embed our DE&I mission and goals into our business’ goals.
Stage 5: Innovation
Transforming into a firm that is recognized globally as an inclusive workplace while also empowering new DE&I measures and ideas.
OUR INITIATIVES
A look into DE&I at Credera.
We have many initiatives at Credera that create space for our people to connect, be inspired, and create change.
Credera Celebrates
Our Credera Celebrates team plans meaningful events and informative communication. They promote awareness of the holidays, festivals, and celebrations important to Credera team members and the communities we live in.
Social connection
Credera encourages organic, self-managed interest groups as a form of social connection and inclusion. They provide the option to connect and build community with other team members of a similar identity or interest. Some examples include regional running clubs, film clubs, and history clubs.
Diversity committees & boards
The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee incubates and initiates firm-wide activities to promote diverse perspectives, attract and retain talent, and foster belonging. Our Shadow Boards exist to provide insight, feedback, and ideas to senior decision-makers and ensure decisions are made with input from a variety of perspectives in the firm (including seniority, ethnicity, gender, and sexuality).
EMPLOYEE RESOURCE GROUPS
Building stronger communities.
Our employee resource groups (ERGs) provide opportunities for team members to build relationships with others who share common interests, backgrounds, and ideologies. Each ERG has their own mission and strategies to make an extraordinary impact on our colleagues, business outcomes, and community.
Editorial
Our progress in reflection.
"As a firm powered by our people, diversity, equity, and inclusion are mission-critical priorities that collectively ensure every Credera team member is treated with respect and care, uniquely supported throughout their career, feels like they are a part of the family, and ultimately has the opportunity to be their whole and best self at work.
DE&I must be woven into the very nature of our daily activities, core to our company’s DNA and strategy, and etched into the hearts and minds of our people. We are committed to fostering a culture where everyone belongs and can thrive to make an extraordinary impact on our people, our clients, and our communities."
