Aird & Berlis’ firm values, Integrity, Teamwork, Excellence and Respect (ITER), guide our decision-making, shape our culture and inform how we engage with one another and our clients. Our partnership comprises nearly two hundred individuals with diverse backgrounds and perspectives, supporting a culture that champions diversity of thought.
Our business owners include members of First Nations and Métis communities, as well as individuals from Black, Asian and LGBTQ2+ communities and persons with disabilities. We are proud that women represent more than 30% of our partnership. All firm members are evaluated based on merit and capability to ensure the highest standard of client service.
Our inclusive environment reflects the communities we serve and fosters a strong sense of belonging. We regularly review our policies and practices with a focus on mental health, LGBTQ2+ inclusion, anti-racism, accessibility and Indigenous reconciliation. These efforts are advanced through our Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) Program and our longstanding Women’s Initiative (WI), which together have delivered internal and external programming in partnership with equity-deserving groups for more than a decade.
