State Street Corporation (NYSE: STT) announced today that it has
received several honors for its diversity and inclusion work from
the Association of ERGs & Councils, Working Mother magazine and
OUTstanding.
The Association of ERGs & Councils presented State Street
with its 2017 ERG & Council Honors Award™ in recognition of its
Professional Women’s Network (PWN). The award is the only annual,
national award that recognizes and honors the outstanding
contributions and achievements of Employee Resource Groups (ERGs),
Business Resource Groups (BRGs) and Diversity Councils. This is the
second consecutive year that State Street’s PWN has been recognized
by the association. “The 2017 ERG & Council Honors Award
recipients are a diverse combination of US organizations
representing most sectors, geographies and sizes,” stated Fernando
Serpa, executive director of the Association of ERGs &
Councils. “We had a record increase in applications this year
representing 1,330 ERGs, BRGs, Diversity Councils and their
chapters. This is by far the most competitive and exciting field to
date.”
State Street’s PWN has 12 chapters, spanning 26 offices
globally, and focuses on networking, developing public speaking and
other professional skills. The group is the largest employee
network at State Street with more than 4,000 members.
State Street was also recently named to Working Mother
magazine’s “100 Best Companies” list in the US and India in
recognition of its history of creating progressive programs for its
workforce in the areas of advancement of women, work flexibility,
childcare and paid parental leave. This is the fourth year State
Street has been included on the list in the US.
In addition, four of State Street’s executives have been honored
by OUTstanding, a professional network for LGBT+ executives and
their allies.
State Street Chief Marketing Officer Hannah Grove and Kim Newell
Chebator, executive vice president and Chief Administrative Officer
in Europe, Middle East and Africa, were named to OUTstanding’s LGBT
Leading Ally Executives list. Steven Chan, managing director and
regional head of regulatory, industry and government affairs in
Asia Pacific was named to the Leading LGBT+ Executives list, and
Marion Bentata, assistant vice president in Credit Risk EMEA and
APAC, was named to the Future Leader list. The executives were
named to the lists in recognition of their support and leadership
in the LGBT community. The lists, presented by the Financial Times,
were compiled through nominations from peers and clients.
“We firmly believe that more diverse organizations yield better
business results,” said Kathy Horgan chief human resources and
citizenship officer for State Street. “Employee resource groups and
work-life supports are pivotal in attracting and developing a
diverse and inclusive workforce. To be recognized again by these
programs for something that is so important to us is a tremendous
honor and we’re committed to continual improvement in these
areas.”
