Bose Inclusion & Diversity

Bose supports belonging and inclusion through employee-led communities, senior-sponsored resource groups, inclusive learning, diverse hiring partnerships and social impact programs that connect employees to a broader purpose. Its approach links inclusion to creativity, professional growth and the belief that employees should feel seen, heard and valued for their unique perspectives.

• Employee-led communities: Bose supports belonging through six Employee Resource Groups and three Affinity Groups, all sponsored by senior executives. Nearly half of employees participate in at least one of these groups, which help build community, amplify diverse perspectives, support professional development and inform culture through insight, advocacy and connection.
• Inclusion as part of the culture: Bose describes diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEI&B) as essential to creativity, innovative thinking and imagination, with a goal of creating a community across identities, including genders, races, sexual orientations and abilities. A global tax director said, “Diversity at its best is when individualism is celebrated,” while a UX researcher said Bose offers opportunities to connect with people who share similar experiences and work with people who bring different perspectives.
• Community impact and belonging beyond Bose: Bose extends inclusion through its global impact initiative Full STEAM Ahead and partnerships with organizations that inspire youth to pursue STEAM careers. Employees volunteer globally as mentors and role models, helping connect Bose’s inclusion efforts to community impact while giving employees another way to participate in purpose-driven work.
