DEI Policy
is not just an ideal goal but rather a strength that we should embrace, as it ensures diverse competencies, ideas, perspectives, and experiences that promote innovation and better decision-making.
in our workplace is not about treating everyone the same, but about ensuring that everyone – regardless of gender, age, ethnic background, disability, role, or level of experience – has equal opportunities to realize their full potential. It is about recognizing and respecting our differences while creating a workplace where all voices are valued, and all contributions are acknowledged.
is our guiding principle. We aim to create an environment where everyone feels valued, accepted, and included. Inclusion means that all voices are heard, and everyone can contribute with their unique skills and perspectives.
We are not perfect at Delegate – neither are we in our work on diversity, equality, and inclusion. But every day, we strive to ensure a diverse workplace where everyone is treated equally, feels included, and can be their true selves.
”Our work on diversity, equality, and inclusion is driven by more than just willingness – it is driven by passion. A passion to challenge the status quo and create a better and more equitable Delegate. Diversity, equality, and inclusion are core values that define our culture and our identity, and we aim to create a work environment where all voices are valued and respected. One of our goals is to achieve a shared understanding of the three terms, as a common language helps us communicate clearly and achieve our common goals.”
– Peter Østergaard, Co-CEO
