ALL IN: Accelerating gender and inclusion
The “ALL IN: Accelerating gender and inclusion” strategy is designed to deliver exceptional experiences, and outlines Deloitte Legal’s commitment to diversity and inclusion, and to accelerating representation of women in leadership roles.

Our strategy has led us to be recognized in the market:

• We have been certified by the Madrid Bar Association as an outstanding Law Firm with regards to gender equality.
• We have received from Fundación Diversidad (Diversity Foundation) the Diversity Charter in recognition of our commitment to diversity and equality.

As an example of our commitment to gender equality we can confirm that this year a total of 169 people were promoted, of whom 56.80% were women and 43.20% were men.

Main three initiatives:

Empower Women at Deloitte Legal:

Development and coaching program focused on the promotion of female talent. This specialised training program has the aim of helping women maximize their strengths and overcome their barriers by sharing real experiences at Deloitte.

Equality Committee:

Special commission created to ensure compliance with the values of diversity and inclusion in the day to day of all the professionals of the Firm.

Women in Legal World Awards:

Deloitte Spain has entered into a sponsorship agreement with Women in a Legal World to support this initiative. It joins Banco Santander and Mutualidad de la Abogacía in recognising the work undertaken by professional women and organisations committed to equality in the field of law and justice.

Additional initiatives:

Women in Leadership Working Group:

Working group created by female partners at Deloitte Legal and aimed to promote the presence and awareness of the female leadership at Deloitte Legal in any important internal or external event or initiative.

Lawyer and Tax Specialist for a Day:

Initiative dedicated to university students living a day accompanied by a partner and knowing what the day to day of our partners is like. The role of the female partners on this day is especially relevant since it allows them to share the importance of female talent with the new generations and future Deloitte professionals.

Act & Impact:

Best Practices Book created and shared with all of our professionals with regards to flexibility, work life balance, diversity and inclusion.

Being Flexible:

Initiative created by Deloitte to promote work life balance both in male and female professionals to avoid that this balance might act as a stopper in anyone’s career.

Train the Trainer:

Specific and compulsory training initiative aimed to promote diverse and inclusive leadership among Deloitte Legal Partners.

Committed Lawyers:

A charitable initiative led by our own lawyers aimed at promoting social projects across different areas such as integration, pro bono advisory services and solidarity with non-profit entities.

The Big Wager:

The Big Wager is an innovation contest designed by Deloitte Legal for all its professionals, and it is aimed at promoting innovation within the Firm with the spotlight on the generation of ideas for new client solutions or services. The contest enables all the professionals to share their ideas in equal conditions.
