Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging at IDEO
IDEO is driven by the ambition to create positive impact in the world through design and creativity, and to help others do the same. Fostering a diverse community of talent and ensuring an equitable and inclusive workplace are essential to that ambition.
Across our global organization, we are committed to making IDEO a place where everyone has equal access to opportunity and growth, where our differences are celebrated and valued, and where those differences fuel our collective creativity.
IDEO approaches diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) with the same care and intentionality as design: as an ever-evolving practice that requires deep listening, collaboration, curiosity, building, evaluation, and iterative refinement. Important indicators of our progress as an organization include: how the demographic diversity of our community evolves—especially at senior levels of the organization; how our community feels about their experiences at the company and their sense of belonging; and how we hold ourselves accountable to equitable and transparent practices to meet the needs of our people and our mission.
Since 2020 we've published summary data about our demographic representation each year, along with the insights and actions that are shaping our journey. We will continue to do so. We track our progress not only as part of our commitment to accountability but also to offer perspective to other organizations striving to improve their culture and workplace. To learn more about our journey over time and where we’re headed, explore our annual DEIB summaries.
