About Avanade
At Avanade, our people are our greatest strength. Every day, our 60,000 professionals make a genuine human impact for our clients, their employees and their customers. We strive to offer a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone can a verse and inclusive workplace where everyone can achieve the full scope of their potential, whether that means taking advantage of flexible working hours and arrangements, furthering their skills through learning development or joining an employee network to help elevate the voices of underrepresented communities. Doing the work of a responsible business starts from within. Because when you invest in your people, they’re equally prepared to invest in the world around them. Avanade has pursued a deliberate and purpose-driven strategy around inclusion, diversity and well-being since our founding in 2000. We know that if our inclusive culture doesn’t consider all races, gender identities, sexual orientations, disabilities, ages, religions—all people and all phases of life—it falls short. From flexible working to discussion on topics like burnout, men’s health and menopause, we foster a stigma-free environment so people feel supported in all aspects of their lives. Members of our 14 employee networks are empowered to have an active say in how we shape a more inclusive future, offering input into company responses, policies and proposals. We’re proud to offer a wide range of learning resources that help Avanade employees uphold our responsible business commitments, including certifications like the Green Software for Practitioners exam. We know AI is already transforming the way we work, live and do business. As we embrace these opportunities, it’s crucial to keep digital ethics and responsibility at the forefront of our AI usage. That’s why we’ve launched the Avanade School of AI, a series of training sessions aimed at equipping employees with the skills they need to navigate an AI-first world—from prompt engineering and generative AI to understanding Avanade’s Responsible AI framework. We track our inclusion and well-being metrics through our annual employee surveys, using the data to inform new programs and make actionable improvements. ...view more
