Shaping the future with confidence is something that requires hard work, vision, passion, and, most of all, commitment. We are all in for creating an environment where people feel supported personally and professionally and where they can grow their skills and thrive in their careers. We are committed to building up the communities where we live and work and developing solutions that address our planet’s most pressing issues. We uphold the governance and professional integrity essential to trust in our free markets. All of us, working together, combining our expertise, standing shoulder to shoulder with our stakeholders, are all in to do the work required.

This report is about our commitment and the actions we take every day at EY US. Maintaining it requires discipline, strategy, organizational excellence, consistency, measurement and a commitment to high performance.

We know there will always be short-term obstacles. But our purpose endures. Our values remain firm. And our progress continues.

We are in the business of navigating through change and complexity. That’s what our stakeholders expect from us, and what we expect from ourselves. So when we say we shape the future with confidence, it’s because we are creating that future for ourselves. We set clear goals, develop effective strategies, take measured action and adjust as necessary to make sure we achieve what we intend. That’s how we create value. That’s how we build confidence. And that’s how we aim to make a meaningful difference for our people, our society and our planet.
