Harvard Business School is a community comprised of faculty, staff, students, and alumni all committed to welcoming and accepting individuals from diverse global and local communities. Our staff brings varying ethnic backgrounds, skill levels, education levels, and personal experiences to their work. All of these unique perspectives fit together to create an environment based on the shared values of respect for the rights and dignity of others, honesty, integrity, and accountability for personal behavior.
The mission of the Harvard Business School is to educate leaders who make a difference in the world. We usually think of our students as the would-be leaders whom HBS is educating. But the mission statement also applies to the stewards of the School itself: the leaders of HBS, like all other members of the HBS community, must be educated over time to make a difference in the world. As part of the broader Harvard University community our employees have the opportunity to join a variety of affinity groups and connect with others who share similar ethnicities, interests, experiences, and characteristics.
