PepsiCo’s Post

Having an opportunity to work in three different industries during the last decade and being a lateral hire at Procter & Gamble Pakistan, people often ask me one question “what is that one thing which makes P&G a great place to work and makes you stick around for a longterm career?” One thing that stands out the most for me is how inclusion isn't just a buzzword here but a commitment and way of life. At P&G, #inclusion isn't confined to gender but it’s about celebrating all forms of diversity, including the incredible talents of #differentlyabled individuals. Our belief in inclusivity has convinced us as a company that disabilities do not limit talent but rather enrich it. When I say, at P&G, inclusion is a way of life, it’s because of moments like these- P&G holds a strategy session annually where we recognise one individual across the plant with the most prestigious award for his/her exceptional impact throughout the FY. This year this award was given to an individual out of 200+ employees who happened to be differently abled; proving again ability transcends any limitations. His dedication, expertise, and invaluable contributions has set a new standard of excellence. This recognition was solely an effort to ensure that we as an organisation celebrate his achievements and acknowledge disabilities don't define capability. Let's make a commitment today that we will break barriers by embracing the limitless potential within every individual, and we will wholeheartedly accept diversity and celebrate talent for its unique skills #inclusiveculture #limitlesscapabilities

A few short thoughts on inclusion as we enter into the first full weekend of Pride month: 👯♀️ AI-written DEI policies will never replace true inclusion. That is set by the corporate culture and must be considered at every step in fulfilling your vision/mission. 🏳️🌈 Inclusion is all year round. It's not a buffet to be sampled only during the dedicated awareness/history/pride months. 😎 It's not difficult be holistically inclusive by considering the multi-faceted human perspective in mission, vision, product designs, services, and workplace culture. ⭐ It's expansive. Your talent pool will grow. Your customer and client base will grow. Your profits will grow. Be safe! Have fun! And don't do anything on camera/social media that you wouldn't want your boss to see. Meanwhile, I'm happy that when I was in my 20s, five years ago, phones were only used for texting and phone calls. Now, I'll be celebrating with my favorite sparkling water and a trashy TV show. What makes you feel included in the workplace?

Humbled to represent Ketchum UK and PRCA’s Equity and Inclusion Advisory Board (EIAB) today, joining an incredible panel at the PRCA National Conference on "Generation Plus: Harnessing the Talent and Power of Multi-Generational Teams" with the brilliant minds of Jackie Cooper (Chief Brand Officer, Edelman), David Parton (Director, Edelman Smithfield), Alexandra Stevens (Head of PR & Communications Recruitment, Reuben Sinclair), and expertly chaired by Ishtar Schneider. With five generations in today's workplace, the role of leaders and teams is more vital than ever. Our discussion covered everything from motivational drivers to a hyper-personalised approach to fostering belonging. One key takeaway? None of this is achievable without a deeply embedded, evolving inclusion strategy - one that actively listens, involves multiple voices, and adapts to the changing needs of our people. My call to action is this: ensure your inclusion strategy is fit for purpose, speaking both to individuals and the generational communities they represent. It's about making everyone feel seen, heard, and valued. But most importantly, it's bringing them along a purposeful journey.

🌈 Happy Pride Month! 🌈 It's that time of year when companies suddenly become DEI champions, painting everything in rainbow colors for a month and then going back to business as usual. At C.H. Robinson however, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are not just buzzwords for June but integral to our mission every single day of the year. Across C.H. Robinson, we embrace diversity and strive to give everyone access to the same opportunities. We do this through a set of principles that guide our day-to-day work: - Social and racial inequalities exist; so we work to remove barriers to success for all. - DEI is embedded in our values and we will continue to integrate into all aspects of our business to ensure long-term, sustainable change. - Our differences make us stronger and better able to meet the needs of our customers, carriers, people, and communities. - Every employee plays an active role in creating a culture of inclusion and belonging where all people can contribute and thrive. Let's continue to support and uplift each other, not just this month, but every day! #PrideMonth #DiversityAndInclusion #CHRSocial #CultureOfBelonging #EqualityForAll

I was thrilled to get asked for ID in Asda when I was buying some wine (I was in my early thirties at the time). However, my youthful vibes were dashed when I got home and the first question my mother-in-law asked when I walked into the kitchen was, "You'll remember this, Catherine... where were you on the day that President Kennedy was shot?" 🙈🫨🤣 I reminded her that this had been years and years and years before I was even a little twinkle in my Daddy's eye. I was amazed that I had been treated as a 17-year-old and a 57-year-old within an hour of each other!!! Reflecting on this experience got me thinking about how perceptions of age can vary so dramatically – not just in our personal lives, but also in the workplace. Ageism can work both ways, with assumptions made about both younger and older employees. Whether you're perceived as "too young" to be experienced or "too old" to be adaptable, these biases can impact our careers and workplace dynamics. It's crucial for us to break these stereotypes and value each person's unique contributions, regardless of their age. Let's embrace generational diversity and create a more inclusive and dynamic work environment where everyone can thrive. #AgeDiversity #InclusiveWorkplace #BreakingStereotypes #GenerationalDiversity #DEI
