"I lead Corporate Social Responsibility and Diversity and Inclusion in India. For the past three years, I have been a core team member helping create and launch the Autism Spectrum Internship program. The Autism Spectrum Internship is a six-month internship program that began in 2020 and has brought over 40 interns to Thomson Reuters. Being a part of this team has been an enriching journey and I'm thankful to have had the opportunity to create a program that positively impacts such a wide range of people. Interacting with the participants and their families has been such a humbling experience. Initiatives like this are important because they allow people to learn about neurodivergent talent, see the benefits of creating a diverse and inclusive workplace, and develop meaningful and lasting connections." Neha, Lead, CSR and D&I, India Stay tuned for our next Inside Thomson Reuters blog to learn more about the Autism Spectrum Internship program and its impact over the past couple of years.

"Shared experience is such a powerful thing – there is truth in ‘you can be, what you can see’. Participating in Women at Thomson Reuters affords me the opportunity to give back, to help structure topics and connections across our company that support allyship, or awareness of bias, or create safe spaces to ask difficult questions. It’s also about celebrating the great things that the women in our organization achieve or social initiatives that get supported by the momentum and enthusiasm that the Women at Thomson Reuters business resource group brings through the collaboration of this network." Janice Mueller, VP Strategy and Growth, Zug
