ESG INTEGRATION

Connected Communities Over the past year, we enhanced our internal communication to foster greater alignment, engagement, and connection amongst employees. A key highlight was the launch of our bi-weekly Marketing Digest, which provides timely updates on events, RPIA publications, and key client and community initiatives. This initiative has improved internal awareness and encouraged stronger collaboration across teams. We also restructured our monthly Townhalls to create a more dynamic platform for engagement. These sessions now deliver clear updates on business priorities and objectives, celebrate achievements, and reinforce our shared mission and values. We also leverage our Townhalls as a forum for our reward and recognition program (Talent Spotlight Award). Together, these efforts have strengthened employee connections and fostered a more informed, unified workplace. Looking ahead: Building on this year’s progress, we will continue enhancing communication strategies to support a more engaged and aligned RPIA community. Productivity Sessions In 2024, we launched Productivity Sessions, an initiative designed to support cross- functional learning and knowledge-sharing across the firm. The program features two key workstreams: • Leadership Insights Series: Fireside chats with senior leaders sharing their career journeys and leadership philosophies. • Department Deep Dives: Sessions led by department leaders to highlight their team’s work, contributions, and key priorities. This initiative fosters a culture of continuous learning while strengthening unity and connection across teams. Employees have embraced the opportunity to expand their knowledge, build relationships, and deepen their understanding of the firm’s operations. Looking ahead: We will continue to build on this foundation, offering employees diverse opportunities to develop and learn, ensuring alignment with their personal growth and the firm’s objectives.

Great Place To Work (GPTW) For the third consecutive year, RPIA achieved certification as a Great Place to Work (GPTW), reflecting our dedication to fostering a workplace where employees feel valued, supported, and empowered to succeed. This recognition highlights the collaborative, respectful, and high-performing culture our employees contribute to every day. In F2024, we saw a 3% increase in our overall employee engagement score. This serves as a testament to the effectiveness of our intentional approach to listening and acting on feedback. Insights from the GPTW survey guided meaningful updates to our policies, practices, and initiatives, strengthening workplace culture and providing employees with the resources they need to perform at their best. Looking ahead: We will continue leveraging feedback from the GPTW survey to guide our People & Culture strategy. Our focus remains on creating a workplace where employees feel supported, engaged, and aligned with the firm’s goals. Talent Spotlight Award In 2024, we introduced the Talent Spotlight Award. Receiving a Spotlight Award is RPIA’s highest honor. This is our reward and recognition program that recognizes employees who go above and beyond in their contributions. Through this, we are able to reinforce a culture of gratitude and celebrates individuals who embody the firm’s core values. The Spotlight Award is a key part of our ongoing efforts to foster a workplace where achievements are meaningfully rewarded and appreciated. By highlighting these exceptional efforts, we are inspiring all employees to reach their potential while strengthening our shared commitment to excellence and collaboration.

Looking ahead: We remain committed to sustaining a culture of appreciation and will continue recognizing the exceptional efforts of our people who drive RPIA’s success.
