We are Committed to Inclusive Leadership That Drives Progress
At Sutherland, inclusive leadership is core to how we shape an intentional employee experience. Our leaders create environments where individuals feel respected, empowered, and heard, unlocking the full potential of our global teams. This people-first approach reinforces our position as an employer of choice and fuels the agility, creativity, and accountability needed to engineer exceptional digital outcomes for our clients.
We believe innovation happens when people thrive. That’s why Inclusion and Belonging (I&B) are strategic enablers of how we lead, deliver, and grow.

Our Commitment to I&B is Brought to Life Through Strategy, Leadership and Measurable Action:
- Our I&B strategy aligns with business objectives and includes clear metrics to measure progress.
- The Global Head of Inclusion and Belonging leads the strategy, while Regional I&B Leads tailor it to local cultures. Employees help shape initiatives, supported by I&B advocates on the ground. Expert-designed surveys help us listen, prioritize and act based on data insights and lived experiences.
- We track results across employee engagement, hiring, retention, feedback from clients and performance.
