Building Community and Belonging

Our DEIB Progress and Goals

Learn how we’re tracking progress, the programs we’ve launched, and the outcomes we’re measuring.

BPM’s eight Colleague Resource Groups (CRGs) play a vital role in fostering inclusion, understanding, and connection across the Firm. These colleague-led communities bring together individuals with shared backgrounds, experiences, and interests — creating spaces to celebrate identity, amplify voices, and strengthen allyship.

Through events, discussions, and advocacy, our CRGs help ensure every colleague feels seen, supported, and empowered to bring their full self to work, deepening our culture of belonging and mutual respect.

Developing Strong Leaders

At BPM, leadership is more than a role. It is a responsibility to inspire growth, trust, and connection. We intentionally invest in our people to empower them and build the skills, mindset, and courage to lead boldly in a quickly evolving world. 2025 highlights:

NextGen and Inspire Leadership Programs

Our third cohort joined this three-year, immersive journey designed to build self-awareness, confidence, and resilience. Participants strengthen their ability to navigate complexity and elevate team performance — fueling a pipeline of future-ready leaders.

Level UP Leadership Summit

More than 500 leaders came together for a high-energy, interactive summit centered on growth and accountability. 81% of attendees agreed the experience had a positive impact on leaders, and 62% said it exceeded their expectations — energizing our community for the year ahead.

Coaching Effect Academy

Designed for emerging people leaders, this program equips participants with practical coaching tools to support meaningful development conversations and create stronger, people-first teams.

Psychological Safety Champions Group

Helped bring together a group of colleagues committed to fostering openness, inclusion, and innovation — ensuring every voice at BPM is heard and valued.

Celebrating People and Promoting Wellbeing

Wellness Incentives Engagement:

68% of eligible colleagues actively participated in our wellness platform in 2025, driven by expanded incentives that reward preventive care, fitness challenges, and mental health engagement. These initiatives are designed to encourage sustainable healthy habits while boosting colleague connection and participation.

Celebrating Success Recognition Program

Launched in April 2025 and already on track to surpass 10,000 recognitions this year, this program builds on BPM’s long-standing recognition efforts by introducing tiered awards. It expands opportunities for colleagues to acknowledge one another, strengthening our culture of appreciation, and reinforcing BPM’s values in action.
