    I found a home in our diverse company as it expanded into a faraway country. For us, embracing multiculturalism isn't just a value; it's a strength. My journey here is a testament to our celebration of differences. We are creating something truly extraordinary.

    I have been working at Lingaro for over three years, and the impact of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion team has been nothing short of transformative. From day one, they have fostered an environment where everyone feels valued and heard, regardless of their background. The initiatives they have implemented have not only raised awareness but have also led to meaningful changes in our company culture.

    Lingaro's strong Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion ecosystem helps all of us come together to live our core values of "Collaboration" and "No Barriers." When I joined after a career break, I felt like I was on equal footing from day one. I've had great opportunities I doubt I would find elsewhere!

    DEI Manifesto

    Our D&I Manifesto was written by Lingarians for Lingarians in 2019 to guide the rapid growth of our global community. Today it serves as a historical foundation for our ongoing efforts to advance DEI.

    The Manifesto calls on us to: 

    • Build a community where everyone feels safe and comfortable with who they are
    • Respect each other as human beings and treat everyone equally
    • Ensure that everyone’s voice is heard
    • Respond whenever our colleagues are not being treated with the proper respect

    Driving DEI with Data

    We strive to objectively track our progress towards meeting our people’s needs for a diverse, equitable, and inclusive working environment.


    Across multiple stages of our colleagues’ journeys with us, we collect relevant data and their feedback on DEI related needs and how well we are addressing them.


    We present the results in our DEI Dashboard. Key data is available for all Lingarians to view.

    Pride Group

    The Lingaro Pride Group is our first-ever employee resource group. Over 20 Lingarians came together to form it after the 2024 Warsaw Pride March. 

    One of our rising talents leads this bottom-up initiative, which has received strong executive sponsorship.

    Long-term goals revolve around community building, spreading resources and education, organizing social events, influencing company benefits, and external networking.

    IT Power Women Global Mentoring Program

    In the global IT market, women are still a minority. To respond to the gender gap in the tech sector, in cooperation with leading universities we launched the IT Power Women Global Mentoring Program to help aspiring female tech talents in Poland and the Philippines plan the first steps of their exciting IT careers, build meaningful connections, get inspired, and envision long-term success.

    So far, 35 female mentoring pairs have been connected within the ongoing program.

    Guest speakers include accomplished female and male technology executives who share stories from their career journeys and offer valuable insights to women in the Lingaro community.
