Baker Tilly sponsors global study on gender, generation and care
In support of our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, Baker Tilly has joined forces with Coqual, a leading think tank and advisory group, for their newest study, Challenging Norms: A Global Analysis of Gender at Work.
In 2023, Baker Tilly sponsored the groundbreaking global study Strangers at home: The Asian and Asian American Professional Experience.
“At a critical juncture in global culture, the Challenging Norms study illuminates the complex interplay of gender identity, societal expectations around care and caregivers, and the ever-shifting landscape of the hybrid, matrixed and global workplace — all framed within the lenses of individual and collective experiences,” said Baker Tilly Chief Diversity Officer Shane Lloyd. “The data calls our attention to complex themes of gender and the all-too-often-forgotten but universal experience of being a caregiver.” Shane explains why it’s important for companies like Baker Tilly to support this kind of research.
As leaders in our profession, it’s critical that we engage in deep reflection about equity and belonging. By furthering the systemic exploration of issues surrounding gender and caregiving that the Coqual study represents, we not only influence the conversation, but we also position ourselves as leaders in building coalitions and generating solutions.Shane Lloyd, Baker Tilly Chief Diversity Officer
