With people in many countries around the globe, Accenture is a very diverse organization. Multicultural work environments are a daily reality for many Accenture employees who work with offshore engagements or international projects. Our understanding of our clients’ businesses and cultural needs are essential to our long-term success. We are in a business that relies on the differentiated skills and talents of our people, but we are united by a common culture. We promote an inclusive, collaborative and entrepreneurial environment where teamwork, respect and trust help us to achieve common goals.
Committed employees in Norway have formed a network that focuses on cultural diversity. The members have different cultural backgrounds and they share a common goal: to create an open and welcoming work environment with an understanding for cultural differences. Their vision is “connecting diverse talents to achieve high performance.” The group meets regularly to initiate activities that will prevent discrimination and foster a positive and inclusive environment based on the respect for people's differences.
