Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

We understand that diverse teams must be intentional. They must be cultivated and valued across a company. We’re proud that people from a range of backgrounds have found a home at Heller Consulting. At the same time, we know that we shouldn’t be complacent about maintaining an inclusive workplace. That’s why we’ve put in place the structure to make sure that DEI is not incidental at Heller Consulting. It’s a core value.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is at the heart of our principles, it’s not simply a project for our team. We recognize that DEI is everyone’s responsibility, and we incorporate it into the way we operate. Heller takes on new initiatives that help us create an inclusive and equitable workplace where knowledge is shared, where all employees are seen, respected, and heard, and where our clients represent our changing and expanding world.

Our goal is to embed DEI into everything we do and to steer away from performative work.

Specifically, we have an active DEI roadmap that incorporates ideas submitted by our team. The roadmap is in place to guide us and make progress toward:

Addressing topics including transparency, belonging, representation, salary equity, and accessibility.
Ensuring marketing, hiring, and employment practices are aligned with being an equitable employer and partner.
Expanding our recruiting efforts to proactively seek people with a wider range of backgrounds and perspectives to join our team.
Regularly discuss DEI topics and give employees opportunities to participate in initiatives.

We also keep a close eye on the work being done around DEI by organizations such as NTEN and Microsoft, and we participate in the Salesforce Equality Partner program.

Whether you’re a prospective or current client, or a potential or current employee, we hope you benefit from these efforts.
