IDEA Team
Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Action
NISA’s IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Action) Team helps cultivate a workplace where our employees can contribute fully, continue developing and bring different perspectives to their work.
Respect
Showing appreciation for the many attributes, accomplishments and unique contributions that people bring
Dignity
Inherently valuing each person for their humanity and their personal lived experiences
Belonging
Creating an environment where everyone feels accepted for who they are and has equitable opportunities to participate in the organization to their full potential
Different Perspectives Strengthen How We Work
Our approach to inclusion reflects the same principles that shape our work with clients and one another: integrity, teamwork, accountability and intellectual curiosity. Different experiences encourage better questions, broader thinking and more informed decisions. We strive to create an environment where employees feel respected, supported and empowered to contribute their expertise.
Action That Moves across the Firm
The IDEA Team is a cross-functional group of employees who develop and support initiatives across the firm. Its work spans five areas and gives employees a way to help shape the workplace they are part of.
Employee Resource Groups | Talent Development| Pipeline Development | Community Engagement | Communication & Celebration
Employee Resource Groups That Build Connection
Our Employee Resource Groups create opportunities for employees to connect, learn from one another and build relationships. Organized around shared experiences, interests and professional development, each group helps strengthen our collaborative culture.
Extending Our Efforts into the Community
We believe all employees can enhance our collaborative culture by volunteering and supporting organizations that strengthen the St. Louis community. Partnering with the NISA Charitable Fund, whose mission is to promote equity among underserved populations by supporting organizations focused on creating systemic change in the areas of education, access to capital and workforce development, our employees have the opportunity to support charitable fund grant recipients through volunteer opportunities throughout the year.
