DEDICATED TO DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION
GUIDED BY OUR BELIEFS
For us, a strong DE&I presence isn’t just a box to check. It’s a belief system that’s embedded in our culture. It enables us to be our true selves. It encourages us to share our ideas and bring our distinct perspectives to the table.
HARMAN is committed to making every employee feel welcomed, valued, and empowered. Our workforce reflects the diversity of the world in which we operate.
We’re proud of what makes us individuals and have pledged ourselves to a culture of belonging. That’s why we created our four DE&I pillars. Supported by Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), we actively build and sustain a culture that empowers our employees to bring their full selves to work, and allows us to thrive in an engaging, inspiring environment.

Equity
“I am personally committed to ensuring my coworkers and teammates feel valued, appreciated, and acknowledged for their individual contributions to the business. I strive to ensure everyone has equal opportunities to voice their opinions and be given ‘a seat at the table’ whenever possible. I have found these simple acts of acknowledgement and encouragement can enhance self-esteem, morale, and job satisfaction – all of which are important foundations for business success and growth.” – Darlene, Senior Manager, Research Analytics
Gender Parity
“As a leader, I try my best to ensure that the female leaders/employees are given opportunities, optics, encouragement and empowerment. Not only that, the male colleagues/leaders in my team also understand and imbibe the same understanding and support the advancement of women in their organization. HARMAN supports the mission so that the impact can be felt at the grassroot level”. – Gunjan, Vice President, Android Platform Engineering
Belonging
“Creating a culture of belonging at HARMAN is not just a moral imperative, it's a business need. Diversity is changing the way teams make decisions for the better. In order to achieve true diversity, we strive to create a safe space so that everyone feels welcome and valued. Just as the full potential of diversity can only be achieved through full inclusion, the power of inclusion can only be fulfilled through being ourselves every day.” – Immanuel, Global Director, Indirect Procurement
Inclusive Leadership
“As an inclusive leader, I provide team members ample opportunities to participate, contribute and be heard. An inclusive environment allows me to leverage my team’s best ideas, and keep them engaged. From my own experience, I know I do my best work when I believe I am not marginalized, when I know I am heard – I think we’ve all been on both sides of that divide, and I believe most of us respond positively when we don’t feel like ‘outsiders.’” – Jude, Deputy General Counsel
