Pitney Bowes Inc. (NYSE: PBI) today announced that it has been
named one of the �40 Best Companies for Diversity� by Black
Enterprise magazine for a fifth consecutive year. The company�s
recognition on this prestigious list is based on its extensive
supplier diversity program and the number of African Americans and
other ethnic minority groups represented on its Board of Directors
and in senior management positions. This is one of many awards
bestowed on the company this year for its leadership in cultivating
a sustainable model of corporate diversity.
�Pitney Bowes is honored to again be recognized as a champion in
creating a diverse and inclusive workforce,� said Susan Johnson,
vice president, Strategic Talent Management and Diversity
Leadership, Pitney Bowes Inc. �At Pitney Bowes, our diverse talent
and inclusion strategy is designed to generate a pipeline of
diverse talent and development of early-in-career talent. We
understand that our greatest asset is a diverse workforce, which
influences the innovation and success of our business while
attracting the best and the brightest talent as an employer of
choice.�
Pitney Bowes has a long history of leadership in cultivating a
diverse and inclusive workforce. Today, integrated diversity and
talent development initiatives transcend the organization. For
example, the Strategic Talent Management division recently
completed a webinar series on leadership capabilities and talent
strategies for women within the organization.
In addition, Pitney Bowes consistently communicates with
employees on the importance of nurturing a diverse and inclusive
work environment with an emphasis on living the company�s values
and a learning and development program focused on effective and
appropriate behaviors for leaders and employees. Other initiatives
include awards for outstanding achievement in diversity, an annual
diversity festival, and new employee orientations that include a
formal diversity message, among others.
The company�s diverse workforce and strategy received
recognition earlier this year from Diversity Business magazine as
one of �America�s Top Organizations for Multicultural Business
Opportunities�; Diversity MBA magazine as a �Top 50 Companies for
Diverse Managers to Work�; and Savoy Professional magazine as a
�Top 100 Companies to Work For�. In addition, Karen Cavalloro, area
director, Pitney Bowes Management Services, was named a �Top 100
under 50� emerging leader by Diversity MBA magazine.
