Collaborating & influencing to build a sustainable future for everyone

Leading up to International Women's Day 2024 we listened to women across our business to understand what the day meant to them and what they would like to see. Based on that feedback today at SThree we hosted two events for women to meet fellow women role models in the business and connect with global peers. In small groups 154 women discussed what investments have helped our careers and what investments we would like in the future. It was both inspiring but also motivating, as we discussed what is working but also what needs to change. Investing in women isn't a one-off at SThree and we are not naive to think we don't have a lot of improvements to make. We run a talent accelerator for women in our business, have action plans being implemented to deliver systemic change across the business and women led communities in 4 of our markets. We are making progress but know we have more to do. #iwd2024 is a powerful moment to reflect but also reaffirm our commitment. So inspired by our role models today. Massive shout out to the women in our business who led this important conversation: Elizabeth Lam, CAPM Francesca Greaves Sarah Mason FCIPD Karen Chalmers Catherine De Caluwe Claire Bonenfant Kimberley Roe Samira Alimohammad Mira Bachtenkirch Christiane Hontheim Christen Roberts Alena Salakhova Louise Martin Emily Bray Anna Maria Freus Kristina Gekova Whitney Lee #genderequality #womeninbusiness #internationalwomensday
