Our firm is full of people who relish a challenge, enjoy collaboration and are prepared to have fun along the way. Diversity, equity and belonging The diversity and individualism of our people goes a long way to creating our culture. The unique experiences, different perspectives and the paths they've taken, make us the firm we are today. It is important to us that our people can be their authentic selves and thrive, both at and outside of, work. We are always keen to support our people through their own personal development and the various initiatives that mean so much to them. Cultural Competency We have a formal Te Reo Maori Policy to encourage, support and facilitate the use of te reo Maori through language lessons, and invest in Te Tiriti education. We actively promote and have a firm-wide focus on diversity related calendar events including Lunar New Year, Pride, International Women’s Day, Pink Shirt Day, Matariki, Maori Language week, Mental Health Awareness Week and Movember. Rainbow We have an active Rainbow Committee who provide support to employees who identify themselves as part of the rainbow community and also work with the Leadership Team and People and Culture to advocate for inclusive policies and practices. We also promote the use of pronouns in our email communications and achieved Rainbow Tick accreditation which signals our ongoing dedication to ensure our people can be their authentic self at Chapman Tripp.
