ACTIVE INITIATIVES
Allyship Committee & RPIA Community Giving Our Allyship Committee was created in 2020 to promote grassroots volunteerism, social activism, and charitable giving. Through monthly learning sessions and activities organized by our volunteers, we promote education and open discussion on inclusive thinking and behaviours, both in our professional and personal lives. Mentorship Program RPIA’s Mentorship Program pairs mentees with senior mentors each year and follows traditional mentorship best practices to foster meaningful relationships and cultivate a sense of community and mutual empowerment within our firm. The organization’s flat structure creates a unique opportunity for junior and mid-level team members to access the knowledge and expertise of senior leaders. Listening Forums RPIA’s Listening Forums were launched in 2021 and are a passion project initiated by our COO, Dannielle Ullrich. During these sessions, she engages with small groups of employees to seek out feedback regarding the employee experience at RPIA. The information collected during these candid conversations has been instrumental in refining our firm culture and enhancing employee engagement.
The Elevate Program was created based on feedback from RPIA’s Listening Forums and developed with the purpose of elevating our collective learning through inclusive leadership, empathy, and accountability. The program’s 4 pillars (the LEAD pillars) that drive our initiatives have been modeled after the values we want to instill in our culture and be recognized for in our industry. At RPIA we believe it is our responsibility to provide personal and professional learning opportunities for the future leaders of the firm.
