Commitment to Women’s Advancement
Zoetis Inc. (NYSE: ZTS) today announced that it has been named
one of the 2020 “Top 70 Companies for Executive Women” by the
National Association for Female Executives. This honor recognizes
U.S. corporations where there is a strong focus on best practices
that demonstrate effectiveness in moving women to senior ranks,
including mentoring, involvement in employee-resource groups and
leadership development training.
“We are honored to once again be recognized by NAFE for our
advancement and development programs for women,” said Roxanne
Lagano, Executive Vice President, Chief Human Resources Officer and
Global Operations at Zoetis. “Under the leadership of our new CEO
Kristin Peck, we encourage and support every colleague as they grow
personally and professionally and pursue their career goals and
aspirations. We view our people as our biggest strength, and we are
committed to offering development opportunities that engage and
empower all of our colleagues.”
NAFE ranked Zoetis most highly for its workforce profile,
including the number of women who hold leadership positions within
the company, as well as its recruitment, retention and advancement
programs for female employees. Zoetis’ commitment to women starts
with the company’s diverse, twelve-member executive team, led by
CEO Kristin Peck. In addition to Ms. Peck, five of the executive
team’s 11 members are women, leading Zoetis’ Research and
Development, Information and Digital Technology, Legal and

200 questions on topics including female representation at all
levels, but especially the corporate officer and profit-and-loss
leadership ranks. The application 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.
