our Journey
How we got here
Throughout our nearly 100-year history, RSM has embraced the power of being understood and sought to increase diversity. In 2014, we began an intentional program to advance culture, diversity and inclusion under the leadership of Rich Caturano and Tracey Walker. In addition to standing up 12 employee network groups and educating thousands of people, we have made strides in increasing our representation of women and diverse professionals in the partnership, in executive leadership positions and on our board of directors. At the same time, we recognize that we have more work to do to build the culture we want to see and shape the evolving mosaic of RSM.
Each day we make intentional choices to create an environment where inclusion thrives.
We take pride in the work that our people have accomplished and look toward the future, continuing to identify areas and ways to shift and grow to benefit our clients, colleagues, communities and the profession.

Wei Xue
Throughout his career at RSM, Wei has continued to use his background and path to success as a catalyst for change.
There is nothing typical about Wei Xue’s path to success. He and his family immigrated to the United States when he was 6 years old, where he was raised in a majority black and brown community. Shortly after settling into his new environment, he met two courageous mentors within the community who were instrumental in guiding him through the early challenges of being a first generation immigrant. This mentoring and opportunities to participate in community-based learning programs established by his mentors provided Wei with the tools to excel academically in high school and at university.
Through the years, Wei has sought to give back to the community that was his launching pad. He has continued to support the community-based learning programs as a tutor and advocate throughout his academic and professional career.
Because of the role education and mentorship played in his own journey, Wei created the Accounting and Business Association Mentor Program while at the University of Maryland. This program aligns first generation and minority accounting students from a variety of diverse backgrounds with mentors in the industry.
Throughout his career at RSM, Wei has continued to use his background and path to success as a catalyst for change. He recently embarked on a two-year journey as a CEO Action for Racial Equity Fellow, where he will work with peers from companies across the country to help advance racial equity while remaining employed by RSM.
