Running through their organization is a strong sense of obligation to serve a number of different stakeholders who count on them to deliver quality and excellence in everything they do.

People who demonstrate integrity, respect, and teaming.

People with energy, enthusiasm, and the courage to lead.

People who build relationships based on doing the right thing.

EY values define who they are. They are the fundamental beliefs of global organization. They guide actions and behavior. They influence the way they work with each other – and the way they serve clients and engage with communities.

Every day, each one of them makes choices and decisions that directly affect the way they experience each other and the way their clients and wider communities experience them. The values give them confidence that they are using the same principles to help make these decisions throughout global organization.

EY global awards program, Better begins with you, enables people to recognize and celebrate individuals and teams within organization who consistently live values and bring purpose of building a better working world to life through their everyday behavior, which in turn makes an impact on clients, people and communities.

This program is an important way in which EY is building shared culture, founded on strong commitment to values.

Globalization and underlying demographic trends mean that competition to employ outstanding people is evolving rapidly. Successful companies are adapting to this by building internationally experienced leadership and equipping their people with the skills to lead in the diverse 21st-century workforce.

EY are already proud of their people culture, and they are committed to doing even more. Culture of global teaming and focus on building a better working world make EY a great place to build their careers. Their clients tell us that in recent years they have improved the effectiveness of their teams, their relationship building and their provision of high-caliber people.

EY aspire to have a leading people culture everywhere in the world. Creating a culture that attracts and retains outstanding people and helps them thrive leads to better service for clients. EY are investing in three key elements of culture that enhance what is important to clients and people:

• Inclusiveness – Recruiting outstanding people is just the start. Inclusiveness means making sure all people’s voices are heard and valued. This not only helps attract and retain the best people, but also it helps get better answers for their clients and their organization.
• Development – EY approach to development involves offering the learning, experiences and coaching all their people need to enrich their careers and deliver the best results for clients, as well as offering additional programs for current and future leaders of organization.
• Engagement – EY want all their people to feel enthused by their work and their colleagues and to be comfortable in an organization that gives them the flexibility to achieve their professional and personal aspirations. EY engage people in countless ways, from selecting the right people to lead major change, to taking an interest in people as individuals, to being sure to say thank you for a job well done. One way EY do this is through their global awards program, "Better begins with you", which recognizes and celebrates people who are making an impact on clients, people and communities through their everyday actions and behavior.

Diversity is about differences. Each of them is different, and at EY value and respect individual differences. At EY, they think broadly about differences; they include background, education, gender, ethnicity, nationality, generation, age, working and thinking styles, religious background, sexual orientation, ability and technical skills. There are also differences according to service line, sector and function.

Inclusiveness is about leveraging these differences to achieve better business results. It is about creating an environment where all of their people feel, and are, valued, where they are able to bring their differences to work each day, and where they contribute their personal best in every encounter.

Research shows that companies with diverse teams that are led inclusively perform better than those with more homogenous teams. Diverse teams are more likely to improve market share and have success in new markets; they demonstrate stronger collaboration and better retention.

Making sure that all their people’s voices are heard and valued not only helps attract and retain the best people, but it also helps them deliver better approaches for clients and for own organization. That is because creating an inclusive workforce, where all difference matter, allows EY to identify the risks and opportunities we might not otherwise see.
