Women have been historically underrepresented at the top levels of the accounting profession. And while the reasons for this are complex, the time for excuses is over. Moss Adams long ago came to the conclusion that there’s both a moral and a business case for making sure women have the same opportunities as men, and we’re hard at work translating that progressive thinking into reality. We call our effort Forum_W.
Since we kick-started our efforts in 2008, we’re seeing a change in our culture. Forum_W is creating a more inclusive environment focused on diversity in leadership, with a keen focus on developing our talented women.
Forum_W hosts professional development, networking, and mentoring activities to help women at Moss Adams make connections and develop their skills. Our efforts have made a positive impact on our firm, our industry, and our communities.
