At MiQ, everything grows - especially inclusion. We’re committed to over-delivering for our people, and creating a place where people want to work for us - and with us.

In 2025, we built on the progress we’ve sustained. We nurtured our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), supported our ERG leads, doubled down on Bystander Intervention training, invested in emerging talent, and made our products and tech more accessible. Plus, we partnered with like-minded clients to ensure inclusion goes beyond the walls of MiQ.

This year’s I.D.E.A. campaign celebrates those who show up for each other every single day, and further our growth. Thank you for making MiQ a place where inclusion nurtures.

Sara Axelbaum - EVP of Inclusion and ESG

A strategy for success

We are committed to a culture of trust, safety, and accountability that supports an equitable workplace for all MiQers.

Everyday inclusion

Intentionally nurturing an inclusive culture so we can all thrive together.

Creating opportunities for people from all backgrounds and experiences to contribute.

Equitable operations

Cultivating consistent processes, governance, and practices to provide everyone with opportunities to be successful.

The people behind the progress

Let’s hear from the people who help to nurture an inclusive culture at MiQ, and those who have benefited.

How our employee resource groups nurture inclusion

‘ERGs nurture and create space for the building of genuine connections across the organization. People come together around shared identities, experiences, and interests, forming supportive communities that strengthen relationships and trust. The sense of connection that comes from the relationships built in ERGs helps people feel seen, valued, and part of something larger. This ultimately makes this the type of place where everyone can thrive together. It's the type of place where people feel they are included and can succeed.’

- Robert (RC) Whitehouse, Chief people officer and ERG executive sponsor

Rise summit 2025

2025 brought bold collaborations, bold approaches and bold outcomes. We're heading into 2026 with renewed momentum and clarity for our ERGs and their leaders. I'm really excited to build on this in the next stage of our global ERG program's maturity, as we diversify our reach, deepen our leaders' capabilities, and strengthen our programming to sustain their passions and drive meaningful impact.
