We believe that the diversity of our people is part of what makes CEC such a special place to work. Every member of our team brings unique strengths to the workplace, and by embracing those strengths, we are better able to deliver outstanding results for our clients. Read on to learn about our corporate employee resource groups dedicated to advancing women, inclusion, and diversity within our company.
In 2018, we launched CECWomen, a group steered by women to create internal and external opportunities to network and leverage one another’s professional experience; to open a dialogue and foster collaboration, feedback, education, and development on important topics of interest; and to intentionally promote and celebrate accomplishments. The group strives to recruit and retain talented and qualified women in the consulting industry; to provide professional development opportunities; and to promote a collaborative network of professional women, both inside and outside of CEC.
In 2020, a motivated group of CEC employees helped to launch a steering committee focused on advancing inclusion, diversity, equality, and awareness. Soon after, we introduced our new community of interest, CEC iDEA. The mission is to facilitate professional dialogue that encourages participants to respectfully share individual experiences in order to gain a shared conscious knowledge and understanding of each other’s unique perspective. Through this, CEC is able to develop processes and recommendations to implement programs for increasing inclusion, diversity, and opportunities within CEC and our communities.
