Celebrating Pride Month

June is Pride Month, a celebration and recognition of the impact that members of the LGBTQIA+ community have had in history. At Wolters Kluwer, we know that a highly engaged, diverse workforce drives better decisions, innovation, and overall performance. 

As we celebrate Pride Month, we asked our colleagues and leaders what Pride means to them. Bill Baker, Chief Human Resources Officer, reflected on his personal journey as a member of the #LGBTQIA+ community and the power of a culture of belonging that encourages all employees to be their authentic selves.

Wolters Kluwer has made great progress as we continually improve our diversity, equity, and inclusion programs and practices and increase our culture of belonging and employee engagement. Recognition in Forbes America’s Best Employers for Diversity 2022 is the latest diversity, inclusion, equity and belonging accolade for Wolters Kluwer. The company was also named in Forbes America’s Best Employers for Women 2018-2022, as a European Diversity Leader by the Financial Times, as Best Practice Leader by European Women on Boards Gender Equality Index, Equileap’s Gender Equality in Europe and in the Dutch Female Board Index.
