We are highlighting the opportunity for our people to include the use of pronouns in their email signatures if they wish to.
Howard Kennedy is committed to building an inclusive culture; a place where all of us can live the value of "Be Yourself". Use of pronouns is a way to facilitate inclusion of all.
We all make assumptions of someone's gender by looking at their name but we may be wrong. Those that use pronouns in their signatures clarify how they want to be referred to. It also signals to the recipient of that communication that they too are able to be themselves. We see this as an important move towards being more inclusive and making people feel comfortable to be themselves.
