2021 Environmental Social Governance (ESG) Report

Through our ERGs, we maintain relationships with organizations like Commercial Real Estate Women (CREW) Network, Project REAP (The Real Estate Associate Program) and African American Real Estate Professionals (AAREP). Employees benefit from educational and leadership development opportunities offered by our partners. For instance, Cushman & Wakefield developed a bespoke mentorship program and intensive professional development program with Project REAP, the nation’s largest talent resource for minority CRE professionals. Ten mentees from Cushman & Wakefield completed the program in 2021. Cushman & Wakefield also nominated rising employees to participate in McKinsey & Company's Black Leadership Academy. To date, 18 employees have graduated from the Executive Leadership and Management Accelerator programs, building core leadership skills, developing management capabilities and expanding their networks. Learn more about under DEI Industry Partnerships later in this section. Throughout the year, our ERGs hosted over 70 events globally that highlighted the rich and dynamic cultures represented by our colleagues in the form of town halls, keynote speakers, panel discussions, heritage month events and programs, mentorship opportunities, community service and national and local chapter networking activities. In a year where COVID-19 continued to keep many employees in remote or hybrid working environments, the ERGs provided opportunities for colleagues to come together, support one another and provide community. See the Community Engagement section of this report for more on how ERGs are making an impact.

Our Global Policy on Inclusion and Diversity defines how DEI is embedded in our culture and business strategy, upholding our key values of “We are inclusive” and “We succeed together."

Workplace and Culture We are committed to a culture where all of our people are seen, heard, respected and valued. We continue to evolve our culture of equity, inclusion and belonging through increased leadership accountability, cross-cultural education and efforts to build community and connectedness among Cushman & Wakefield employees. In 2021, we made strides in expanding the global reach of DEI to gain greater understanding and allyship. Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) Our nine ERGs are an important part of our DEI infrastructure. They are company-sponsored, employee-led groups with a common identity, along with those that support their mission. The ERGs help to raise awareness, build community and provide a sense of belonging to our employees by offering an assortment of professional development, mentorship, networking and community engagement opportunities. The ERGs are led by employees who are passionate, committed champions of change doing their part to contribute to evolving DEI at the company. Consistent with our culture of inclusion, ERGs are open to all employees regardless of whether they identify with a particular affinity. Our global ERG network is comprised of thousands of employees in over 10 countries.
