Owned by women.
Led by women.
Bold by design.
Hirons is proud to be a newly certified Women’s Business Enterprise.
Our WBENC-Certification and State of Indiana Certification are causes for celebration and a natural progression for a company with a 46-year history of providing opportunities, mentorship and enthusiastic support for women in business; a place where our long-standing supplier diversity program ensures our embrace of diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility extends outside our own walls.
For us, it represents more than a badge of honor. It represents our commitment to cultivating a healthy, diverse workforce that inspires growth for clients and for women in our industry.
Leading by example
Empowering women in business
Despite recent growth in the marketing and communications industry, women hold a mere 10% of CEO positions among Fortune 500 businesses. The workforce still has a lot of catching up to do before achieving equal representation in leadership. Hirons is proud to help blaze the trail.
Our determination to encourage female leadership reinforces our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion. From the top down, our workplace celebrates unique perspectives and ideas that push us forward in pursuit of future success. We believe in fostering leadership skills in not just the C-suite but in all areas of the company. Hirons is building a pipeline of talented women who are prepared and empowered to lead.
We understand that when we build opportunities for women to create, excel and lead, we’re building opportunities for our business to do the same.
Women-owned and employee-owned
In addition to being women-led, Hirons is an entirely employee-owned company. As employee-owners, our success is directly linked to our clients’ success. Our fate isn’t tied to the instincts of a handful of distant investors — it’s linked to the team members responsible for day-to-day operations and client relationships.
In 2010, the firm transferred ownership to its team members through an Employee Stock Ownership Program (ESOP) and, by 2013, Hirons became completely employee owned. Through the ESOP, employee-owners benefit from the firm’s success. The model serves employees across departments, from entry-level to executive positions. Our success is a testament to the progress being made in gender equality. And although there’s a lot of progress still needed across the industry, Hirons is proud to lead from the front.
