Capgemini has been named one of the 2020+ Top Companies for
Executive Women by Working Mother Media (WMM). This list is the
most definitive list of top workplaces for women who want to
advance through the corporate ranks, and celebrates companies that
champion women’s advancement, with a focus on succession planning,
profit-and-loss roles, gender pay parity, support programs and
work-life balance programs.
“It’s more important than ever to have a culture and talent
strategy that enables human potential that not only matches the
rich make up of society, but supports the ambitions of positive
change and progress for our communities,” says John Mullen,
President of Capgemini’s North America Business Unit and Group
Executive Committee Member. “We are proud of this recognition and
will continue to do our part to create a diverse team that promotes
and nurtures successful women.”
“Because what gets measured gets done, our Top Companies list
stresses the number of women in senior positions,” says Betty
Spence, President of the National Association for Female
Executives. “Most important, we are the only organization that
counts women holding revenue-generating operations positions with
profit-and-loss responsibility, as those are the jobs that are the
path to the top. Companies need to pay attention because that
number dropped in the past year, even pre-COVID-19.”
Capgemini continues to be recognized as a responsible and
inclusive employer and is committed to empowering and growing the
number of women in leadership. Capgemini’s own Women’s Leadership
Development Program, a structured, ongoing leadership development
program, provides training, mentoring, career objective-setting and
outside coaching to women. Capgemini also promotes diversity and
inclusion through the endorsement of 11 Employee Resource Groups in
North America, and its Inclusion Leadership Advisory Council (ILAC)
which focuses on diverse recruitment, employee development and
retention initiatives for under-represented communities. Currently,
there are more than 3000 North American employees participating
across these groups.
In addition to this distinction from WMM, Capgemini was also
nationally recognized by WMM in the Diversity Best Practices
Inclusion Index earlier this year and the Human Rights Campaign
Foundation as a Best Place to work for LGBTQ Equality.
Methodology
The 2020+ Top 75 Companies application includes more than 200
questions on topics including female representation at all levels,
but especially the corporate officer and profit-and-loss leadership
ranks. The application, based on 2019 data, tracks and examines how
many employees have access to programs and policies that promote
advancement of women and how many employees take advantage of them,
plus how companies train managers to help women advance. To be
considered, companies must have a minimum of two women on their
boards of directors, a US-based CEO and at least 1,000 US
employees.
