**Diversity & Inclusion: At McCann Worldgroup, we believe that Diversity & Engagement are foundational to achieving our mission of helping brands play a meaningful role in people's lives. As a globally integrated community that influences and shapes culture, our talent must reflect the multicultural marketplace we serve. And we know that when employees of all socially and culturally diverse backgrounds and identities feel empowered to share their unique perspectives at work - game-changing and market-leading ideas come to life. To that end, and in service to cultivating such empowerment, we strive to create the conditions that foster a sense of connection, belonging and shared purpose among those who come to work in our agencies.

We do this by developing internal and external global initiatives to reach our goal of embedding inclusive practices into everyday business decisions and interactions.

Our efforts include, but are
