As a part of the Catalyst CEO Champions for Change, Genpact continues to collaborate with global peers to advance gender diversity at work and drive change, specifically pledging to:
- Accelerate progress in advancing the representation of women, particularly women from marginalized ethnic and racial groups, in executive/senior-level positions.
- Maintain (where strong) or accelerate the representation of women, particularly women from marginalized ethnic and racial groups, on the Company's Board of Directors (or equivalent).
- Strengthen the pipeline of women through an annual review of internal diagnostics and leverage leading practices to address any identified issues.
- Benchmark and track inclusion and improve the culture of inclusion within the organization.
- Share key representation metrics with Catalyst for benchmarking and for anonymized reporting of our collective aggregate progress.

"By joining the Catalyst CEO Champions For Change movement, we are committed to achieving our vision of having women make up 50% of our employees at every level of the organization and leveraging data, technology, and AI to track progress and build a better, more inclusive world for all."
