Kearney hosted our annual PROUD Accelerator in the Kearney PERLab and Chicago office headquarters. This two-day event allows LGBTQ+ students to practice casing and network with our #consultants as they prepare for the upcoming interviews. Thank you to everyone who attended!
We are happy to share that our Partner Anna Kraft has been recognized as a Seramount 2022 Working Parent of the Year! Throughout her tenure at Kearney, Anna has paved her own path to prioritize her family, while growing her career: "When I thought I was going to have to quit consulting, a mentor told me It wasn't time to find a new job elsewhere, but a new job at Kearney...There was a plethora of opportunities available to me that allowed me to both put my family first and continue to advance professionally." Congratulations, Anna!
Last week, our Latino and Hispanic Network met in Miami for a 2022 All Hands event. Colleagues from the network and allied diversity networks joined us to reconnect and reenergize. We were proud to also host two guests from our Kearney alumni family. Thank you to Farrukh Bezar, SVP and CSO at CSX and Marcos Peralta, SVP at Mastercard for sharing your Kearney histories, and how #consulting and being #Latino shaped your careers.

How can #women facilitate networking and relationship building? Recently our Women’s Network members within the Strategic Operations and Performance practice met for a breakfast workshop to discuss just that. Before meeting they listened to an episode from the Harvard Business Review’s podcast “Women At Work”. Together, they had an energetic and impactful conversation on women and visibility in the #workplace.
