Social sustainability is at the core not only of our business but also of who we are as a firm. Our commitment to society is ingrained in our strategy, which includes our ambition of becoming the most trusted and trustworthy professional services firm. Through our services, we contribute to a healthy economy and society and guide our clients through the disruptive transformations of today and tomorrow. In particular, we take our role in supporting the sustainability transition very seriously, with ESG solutions for our clients having been embedded in our firm for more than 30 years.
It is solely through our people (“our workforce”) that we can live our purpose – Inspire Confidence, Empower Change – and bring the best services to our clients. Driven by this purpose, our workforce is guided, in everything we do, by our values: Integrity, Excellence, Courage, Together, For Better. These values define our expectations of each other and, most of all, ourselves. Cultivating a purpose-driven and values-led culture takes time and perseverance, but we are dedicated to the process; after all, these values represent who we are and what it means to be part of KPMG N.V.
